METAL DETECTOR BADGE

[against the wind]

It's official,, The Treasure Gods determined that it was time for me to recover my own Metal Detecting Badge.
Yesterday, I spent 4 hours searching a lawn that is located directly across from some buildings that were built in the 1920's.
I have found a concentration of silver coins on previous trips. The area where I located the silver was approximately 200 ft.
by 50 ft. Although I did recover 8 Wheat Pennies, I may have depleted this area of silver because I came away Silverless.
A pleasant surprise was when I dug up The Official Metal Detecting Badge. I feel Honored.
My finds for the day were:5q, 7d, 4n, 18 memorials, 8 wheat pennies, (41, 44(3), 45, 46, 49, and one that is toasted. )
I also recovered 4 slugs, a Korvettes Tag, a mangled toy truck, 2 spoons, (one is marked "Hollywood Silver Plate"), a brass bell, and of course my Official Metal Detector Badge.

Marcus Welby just called and he wants his badge back. Congrats on getting out yet again rescuing all those items. You've got to be way over $500 in face value for the seasons coin yield.

Why Sub,,
That was very nice of you.
I do believe that you are a Poet.

Your brass bell looks like the bell for a phone ringer based on my 34 years with the phone company. Congrats on a good hunt, even though there is no silver. Sometimes it can be hard to come by.
