Indy.....you seem totally shocked when you find "odd" coins in certain places. The great thing about our hobby is that people from all walks of life are everywhere, all the time. Kids especially like to carry around coins that someone has given them to collect and they are tempted to take them to school or to the park to show off. My oldest and oddest coins have all come from parks or playgrounds. You have to think like a kid when you find these goodies..."Oh cool! Grandpa gave me this really old silver dollar.....I can't wait to show my buddies at school! Oh......race you to the swings!"

Thanks for sharing your finds, and I hope you continue to find treasure on those frigging tot lots! :wink:

Yep i had a canada dollar with the duck in the lake on the back, lost it too.
 
Nice Wheat's, they sure came out of the ground in good shape. Most of mine look like heck.

Congrats!!

Could have been brought in from another place (top soil) or mulch or there could have been an old property under there too. I found 3 1919 in 2 days. I have 12 since last year. They must have minted a billion that year ::)
