Howdy folks.
Had a good day compared to last Sunday. Last weekend I spent hours pounding through poison ivy, briers, and swamps for a wheat penny and a WWII military badge. Today I found a 40% Kennedy half in the coin machine at the super market and then I spent about an hour at a small park and found the following the additional stuff:
The 1868 shield nickel was a pleasant surprise, but I also like the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair baggage tag. Funny thing: I spent all that time last weekend searching near a battlefield with no relics found and one of the first signals today was the Kepi slide. We'd even been talking about that on last week's post. Funny how that works. Signals were plentiful, but most were shotgun shells and the typical trash. I'll probably return tomorrow and hopefully get some silver or something with a Louisiana pelican on it
. The soil here is beautiful to the brass!
Thanks for looking,

PS: At the market yesterday I saw a fellow working on the coin counting machine, the same one the I found the Kennedy today in. Its some sort of generic coin-star-esque thing. He pulled out what looked very much like a gold ring and handed over to the store's lost and found. Dang! Missed that one!
