I wasn't going to even go out today but I happened across the weather report and from what it said, I just COULDN'T miss this first real Spring like day!
After the no coin day last time out at the mansion, I needed a coin fix.
So, I chose my recently rediscovered/researched ball field. I figured I could at least find some clad there. BOY! Did I get surprised!
The weather, the variety of finds, the success of the research about this realigned ball field that I figured out, all served to make this one of the most enjoyable days ever.
Enough talk, here's what you came to see:
The Over All
There were many surprises today. This was one, it's brass and some sort of buckle. But, it was a
DEEP 14 inches!!! AND, it rang up like a quarter! ( 84-86)
For some reason this nail surprised me. It's non-magnetic! Brass/Bronze.
I don't think I knew they made brass nails, let alone square ones! LOL
Whole wheat toast section.
About those surprises? Well, this was a solid 8 inches down and it rang out
loud and clear as 90-93!! I was SOOOO expecting silver! (didn't miss by much but I'm still happy!)
For some reason this only rang up at 42-45. I was very surprised to see silver!
Ahhhhh, here was what I was looking for! A full 8 inches down and in lovely shape!
I thought for sure that here was the star of the hit parade for today!
But, no. I was in for one more surprise.
I saw this first and figured, cool! I found an old boy scout or WWII pin of some sort!!
TOTALLY unexpected, given the spot I was hunting!
Then, I turned it over.
I really don't know my buttons at all. But, I KNOW this is just plain special! At least, it is to me.
I would love to hear the story about this button and how it came to be where I found him.
Um, Marine Quartermaster?
Like I said, all in all, a simply wonderful day!!! Hope I was able to share a bit of the pleasure
I found in this, the first day of Spring. (at least, it was for me).
Thanks for peeking!
HH!
My ride is here! See ya!
