Week of firsts and fabulous!

[Underwonder]

I got up the nerve to knock on a door to ask who owned adjacent vacant property and was given a name and number to call. I was generously given permission to keep anything I found (except for a 1943 copper penny if found....Did not..but did find a 1941!) I did find some old buckles from the 1800s, old nails, couple of newer. pocket knives, and......drumroll....a silver coin...1847 seated liberty dime in good shape! So thrilled.

Thanks for the encouragement, Tom. Speaking of hurting eyes, enjoy the solar eclipse on Monday. You should be in a perfect spot! I am jealous. We thought about driving south to get a better view, but figured it might be crowded and hard to find a spot at this late date. Do enjoy!

New to forum...When I read a comment and am happy to have received it, is a "like" appropriate? Thanks!

[emoji26]No 1943 copper. I offered the buckles to the heritage association but they were not interested..which surprised me.
