Hey kid! Gimme your milk money...

Funny how when the frustration with a site is starting to build to breaking point, something will come out of the ground that immediately brightens the morning.

Reaching near the end of my hunt I was close to skunked and had moved form where I was getting nothing behind the goal post to about the sideline mid field where I figured kids would go as it?s shady. Hit on something jumpy ~55-83 which is usually junk/iron but something was different with the sound so I dug it.



I?m usually a silent hunter but when I saw the unmistakable silver sitting on leather and several coins in the hole I uttered an audible and probably loud ?Oh!? Seven coins in total. Highlights are the dime (1964) and a wheat (1940). Youngest coins are 1965 so it was lost probably that year. Too bad the kid was poor, lol. Some quarters would have been nice! I scanned that hole hard but seven was the luckiest I was getting.




I?ve had coin spills and found stacks but I can now notch my first coin pouch off the list.

It?s the blessing and the curse because I?ll have to go back to this park at least one or two more times before I feel okay about moving on.

That,s definitely a surprise,huh?Great find for you!

For me the best finds have been the ones I thought was going to be something else and something nice pops out.

Cool find! Nice to find a spill once in a while. Congratulations.

And a spill in a coin pouch is even sweeter. Little runt could have had some bigger change though[emoji23] I must have scanned the e hole with my carrot six or seven times hoping. Not sure what to do with the coin pouch. Toss or keep [emoji848]

And that?s practically what my unconscious release of frustration it was in volume too!

Wow, way to go Dig. such a cool find in situ........

That dime being stuck to the leather when it popped open was perfect and I?m getting a kick out of the way the coins imprinted the outside into their shape.

Great find. I'd sure like to find a coin purse with some coins in it someday.

Nice find you made!

Great find; something we all hope for! I had the good fortune of finding a leather coin purse earlier this year with silver in it, so I know the excitement you feel. Congrats!

I remember seeing that post in March and it was with that in mind that I kept checking the hole even when it was obvious I had it all, lol. I?d sure like to find an adults coin purse of the age you had found.
