Back to the foundation site today........

[tb]

? Went back to the foundation site that I've been to a couple of times before.? This is the site where I found the Walking Liberty 1/2 dollar two weeks ago.? My mother-in-law went along today.? Her first hit was a 1937or31 Buffalo Nickel!? She found a 1951 and a 1952 wheat penny after that.? I managed 2 '57 wheats, a '53, '52, '45, and a '44 wheat.? Tons of bottlecaps and other junk.?

Looks like you found some good stuff, tb.

Thanks for the pictures. It made me smile because I was thinking about starting a thread about what people wear when they detect. My mom just laughs at me...hiking boots, ripped wind pants, gardening apron, anorak jacket and baseball cap. I look like a homeless person. Your M-I-L looks much nicer than I look when detecting. At least she matches!

TimmyNY, One of the tubes is "Musterole", I guess it was supposed to work like vapor rub.

Jake, I think the silverware was plated, I still have to clean them up.

trk5, my father-in-law is retired from the Fire Dept. I need to get her some cheap pvc rubber boots, those fire boots sink deep into the mud and are a little heavy for her.

I was going thru all of that junk to take the picture and one of the pieces was a tube of lipstick with lipstick still inside, pretty wild considering that stuff has been in the ground 60 years. I guess the mud will preserve stuff sometimes.

take care,

tb
