My lakeshore hunting has continued and while finds are getting more difficult, the last week has brought quite a few good ones. I've decided that the old coins are being brought to the surface or being washed down from the banks by erosion, so hopefully winter snow and rain will replenish the beach.
- Two indian head pennies, a holed 1881 and a chewed up 1903.
- A 1904 barber dime, thinned by the water and sand
- A STELLAR silver locket front, that appears to have some age to it
- Two tokens, one for JOES BUFFET, and a Minneapolis-St Paul Co streetcar token that dates from 1950 or earlier
- A great button or knob, once gold plated, now copper, that says MINEB St Paul BRAND. No such company now but I will research.
- Several more recent vintage pieces of jewelry including a fox pin missing its rhinestones, a lock locket, a junk ring and a fisherman's warf pin
- A handful of wheaties, mostly from the 1940's but one 1916S penny that I don't have in my penny collection. Some of the pennies, including the indian head come up this strange calico, mottled light and dark color that looks like a bad cleaning job. Not too attractive.
Its been a great place to hunt.
