Bullet, Money and Two Cool get away Cars

[Dirt Fisher]

Hi All,

Hunted a site where there used to be two very old houses that are long gone and an old park site from 1887. The small park had an auto repair shop built on it sometime between 1917 and 1925 so I have to watch for it to be torn down as it covers most of the small park and I hope lots of old coins.

The bullet looks like a Confederate 50 Caliber, don't see too many of them.

The lime green car i found first and about an hour later my wife found the blue one, so we now have his and hers hot rods.

As always we found tons of trash/junk and clad coins.
