Hello all.

This past weekend I was trudging around the woods where I have found some silver coins this year. I had surmised the coins were likely dropped by hunters in the 30's and 40's. I didn't find any more silver, but I did find this old hunting license. It's pretty rough and the back pin is missing. It's a shame too, because apparently they are quite collectable. I found one on ebay that sold for around $179 bucks. Of course it was in MUCH better shape. Oh well.

Very nice hunting badge. Today, they use paper.
I found a trap tag but I'm still looking for my first metal hunting tag.
Congratulations

Don't get me wrong I like finding coins (still looking for the old ones and my first silver) but it's finds like this that I get a kick out of! Congrats.
