Only 5 coins found today, but 2 are silver.

Back to the playground woods again today. Slim pickens, but did manage to find Barber and Mercury dimes, along with 2 wheaties and a memorial penny.

Here's the 5 coins:


Close-ups of 1892-o Barber dime and 1918 Mercury dime:


Other stuff I found includes a rusty chain, a fancy buckle thingy, a partial Guardian Angel medal, a big button, an old marble, a lead thing shaped like a thimble, a shell casing, a broken bell, and some kind of change purse, I think (empty of course).

Civ,
There was a hicking trail through there for a long time. Might have also been a bridle path and/or biking trail. Now it's almost totally overgrown. The playground area is fenced off. It's been hunted to death in the past and the ground is probably frozen now. I just stick to the overgrown wooded areas on the sides of the old trail.

Doesn't look like slim pickings too me. Nice finds. Would rather come home with a couple good ones than a lot of so so ones.
