I went back to the construction site today. The one where I found my "Promise Dollar Token". I must confess, I had visions of sugar plums dancing in my head all the way there! I was soooooo hoping that I would find something else there that might shed some light on the token. I hunted the whole site for a solid two hours. I got nothing, zip, nada, zilch! At least until I was on the way out and I found a new clad dime, lying on the parking lot! LOL
Well, not to be put down, I ambled over to my penny ante park. (that's what I call it now. )
I wandered around in there for a full 4.5 hours.
The over all:
Turned out to be a fun day after all.
I got one of those "trash can lid" hits and it rang up at a easy 90! It was basically right on the surface too! Just below the grass.
I saw this:
I said, and I quote, whadifind
A plate? A lid to something? A manhole cover??
Did they play football during the Civil War?
Buckle?
Nope. A HUGE medallion celebrating some football event!
Kinda neat, huh.
Then, being Sunday and since I was in my "church".
Seemed only fitting that I should discover a bit of
religion.
The strange thing about this is that when I got it home and washed it off. I could see a beautiful face staring back at me.
But, when I went to take the picture, it wasn't there.
I found that I can only see it when the piece is wet! LOL
Now, about that wolf. I was bent down over my hole when I heard a noise.
I looked and there, staring me right in the eye, was a wolf!!!!
How would you like to have that staring back at ya?!?!
Was ok though, just a ring.
I was hoping for at least silver, but, no, it does have a very heavy plating of some sort though.
And it appears to be crafted pretty well. Dontcha think?
Thanks for stopping by, hope it was enjoyable.
HH!
