Ain't she purty
I went back to a large playground area that I last hit about 2 weeks ago. Just goes to show that you never know what might happen between visits....
Somewhere in that two week period a person sat on a bench to watch the kids and lost his/her 1944 mercury dime! She was just sitting there about an inch down in the woodchips waiting for me this morning - all shiny and bright. I also brought home a quarter-sized token from Gator's Dockside, three quarters, 5 other dimes, one nickle, 19 pennies, a barrette, a plastic and thread bracelet and a plastic bishop chess piece. Not bad for an hour of hunting... I hung in there until the heat drove me out; the sweet dime was the second find of the morning. (She's my second piece of found silver - my first -and my very first find - was another mercury dime... but that was long, long, long ago... way back in January!
