Sidewalk Shuffle

[stoney56]

Well, after all the things going on the last couple of weeks, I finally got to turn the machine on for a few minutes and check out a sidewalk tear up. Was only able to get in 20 min or so but I'm happy.
There is a seated dime too worn to date, an 1885 IH, a 1907 Barber dime, an 1891 V nickle, and a 1901 O Barber quarter.

Nice finds! That 1901-o Quarter is a rare one with low mintage. Looks like it was lost with some great detail. Hopefully it isn't pitted and the crusty stuff cleans off.

Thanks for the info Goldiver. Not planning on cleaning it. Figured someone with more experience can do that one. Been soaking the nickels and IH's in peroxide to get the corrosion off. Otherwise leaving them as is for now.

Thanks Gypsy!! Get yourself and the girls over here. There's gonna be a whole lot more goin' on.

Gypsy, be careful!!! He's likely to get ALL OF YOU thrown into jail......going around, tearing up sidewalks, just so he can find
a couple of old coins underneath them......beats me what he is thinking of.
(Well, thinking about it, if the coin found was a REAL REAL GOOD ONE, then maybe it would be worth it to do a little time. )
