I went back to the old neighborhood that is being redeveloped. The bulldozers have been scraping away the trashy top layer.

I found a hand full of modern coins, and eyeballed 3 marbles. Here are some marbles in the wild, just before capture.

Some little slugger let this YMCA medallion get away.

As soon as this shiny dime came out, I knew I was in the silver. Last of itโ€™s kind, 1964.

That was the only silver that showed up, but I also found 10 wheaties, and eyeballed a Monopoly game house, and policemanโ€™s head.

Thanks for looking and good luck on your hunts!

Nice finds! :icon_thumleft:
 

Congrats on yet another Rosie find Tom. :thumbsup:
Love the look of this YMCA baseball piece, is there anything written or stamped on the back?

Looks to be from the 1940s - 50s. :icon_scratch:
