Today's Finds - 07-10-06

I went and hunted a few house yards today. Both houses were built in 1900. The first has almost 4 acres of land and the send about 2.25 acres. I hunted about 20min at each site. I just wanted to test the water, so to speak, to see if it would be worth bringing Lee back with me to hunt them because he needs to get some coins to fill a few spots in his collection.

The first house gave me 2 wheats and an 1899 Indian Head Penny and 2 what's its.

The second house gave me 3 wheats, a 1947 silver roosevelt dime, and a 1947 jefferson nickel and 2 more whats its. It also yielded 2 memorial cents and a clad dime.

The wheats are: 1915D, 1927, 1928, 1940, and 1945D.

I don't suppose it could be a gold/silver/platnium bar could it??.....the serial number makes me lean that way....hard to tell....hope it is!

I think it's just a piece of metal plated with something shiny. There is a spot on the back that makes me believed it could have had something melted to it in the past.

Very nice finds. I would go back or skim off the first 8 inches of dirt and sift it at home.
