I got some more time to visit the scout camp twice in the past week. I didn’t find anything spectacular, but I made a lot more holes and did manage a respectable number of finds. On the first day I found 65 tent pegs, 147 coins with a face value of $11.15, a mess kit spoon, a table knife, a solar phone charger (I doubt if it still works), a military blank, an older style neckerchief slide, a beat up quarter, an NRA summer camp pin from 2017, the brass part of a knife belt clip, a rope tensioner, a 10 cent Euro coin, a bunch of sinkers, and a lot of melted aluminum from past campfires.
The older slide is flatter and wider than most regulation slides. Regular on the right, older flat one on the left. The blank is marked LC 64 made at the Lake City Arsenal in 1964. The primer has been struck, but the end is still crimped so it looks like it was a dud.
Day 2 I found 87 pegs, 180 coins with a face value of $13.62, a bent mess kit knife, mom’s good kitchen spoon, 4 rope tensioners, the cork screw off of someone’s knife, more sinkers, another slide, a BSA BEST pin, and lots more melted aluminum.
So lots of time outside in the fresh air away from everybody (keeping my social distance), lots of gas money, plenty of pegs for the camp, and more slides for the new scouts. Thanks for looking and may your coil lead you to good things.
