Hi all,
I went out this morning before I was able to experience what may be a record breaking hot day (it may reach 90 degrees). Weird for October around here.
Anyway I didn't have any new places to check, so I did something I had done in earlier weeks..I re-checked a yard I had already searched several times before. This time I checked all the "iffy" signals and found a bunch more shtuff..first I found an initial ring very close to a big tree in the front yard.
After digging up another coin or two, I noticed I was being savagely attacked by mosquitoes, so I sprayed myself with repellant and got to really enjoy the rest of my hunt.
When I was finally done, I ended up with a ring, 48 more Lincoln memorials, 4 more wheats, a clad dime, a Bicentennial quarter, 2 more toy cars, a parking token, 6 keys, a dog tag and some kind of heart-shaped pendant.
I found the ring (45th ring of the year!) near a tree in the front yard..I must confess, it wasn't an "iffy" signal - it rang out as a solid pull tab. It's plated, but it's kinda nice.
My first initial ring.
Wheats are 1952-D, 1953-D, 1957-D and 1958-D.
The very rare Bicentennial quarter (they only made them one year
).
Token says Automatic Parking Devices, Inc., Farmington Hills, Michigan.
These 3 old keys were on the same ring.
Thanks for viewing,
Nat

The hot wheels are fun to find. However, that many memorials....ugh.
