I have been hunting sidewalk and road tear outs lately! These are from the past few hunts. I talked the workers into using my land to store their dirt. I haven’t found anything in the piles but I am hopeful. The Nickel is from 1900, and the charm came from in front of the church. The Alma Colorado dog tag should read 1864, but I’ll take a 1964. It is from dog number 1!! I’m guessing there wasn’t much going on in Alma in the 60s. It would have been a good time to buy property!! The purse piece sure isn’t dainty!!! I hope you all are getting out and finding things!!! 36773BC6-A40C-4D0F-9243-599AE781C2EC.webp83F65727-4909-403E-A8BB-D2112CB6DD22.webpBD1654F4-28F5-4830-AE72-BA18CC667B87.webp0D3AC04F-9D58-499D-AE1D-83D0A3799B37.webp

Great Dog Tag (:
 

Dog tag is pretty cool. Did they keep records of who was issued that tag??

Maybe I could track it down by calling. I like to stop for coffee in Alma sometimes! It is the highest incorporated town at 10361 feet.

Those are some nice relics and they prove out your strategy. Keep it up! :icon_thumright:
 

I found this today on a quick hunt, so life is good, 1897 quarter! Barber quarters are pretty rare for me, I haven’t dinged a coin in quite some time but you can’t win them all. Thanks for the posts! 6276D641-5F57-49DF-939F-6CD87866C2AD.webpE6873CE1-6E17-4C13-84FD-14AD060255B8.webp
 

Looks like your doing well good idea with the dirt. Great post
 

Thanks A2, it’s a big project for our little town. They are paving and putting in sidewalks and redoing the drains on 4 streets.(1 blocks worth) they are moving a lot of dirt around. You have to be in the right place at the right time. Soon it will all be paved over:( It sure makes summer exciting for me!!!
