My first Eisenhower dollar found yesterday at a St. Louis park. 1974D. Also dug an antique jeweled brooch/hair barrette
Also found a loaded Browning Buck Mark 22lr 10 round magazine. Will probably put it on eBay, sans bullets.

I found one!

But, it's as light as a feather, and looks goofed up.

Found that Ike in a public park? wow, wonder how it hid all those years, the one I found last year was a real screamer when my coil went over it!

Correct. Surface find. As mentioned, it will soon be on eBay minus the bullets. It should fetch a minimum of $40. Heck, I'll even ship it for free.
