Hey there, fellow hunters.
I wanted to share a couple of pics with you.
The first pic is an assortment of foreign coins, tokens, and thingies I have found in the last while. All kinds of weird stuff in there.
The coins in the second pic mean a lot to me. Like I said in another thread, most of my goodies were stolen over the years, mainly in two seperate robberies. Somehow--miraculously--this wheat collection is original to my lifetime of treasure hunting. Some of these coins are the only survivors of coins that I found when I was just a kid. The rules for this collection are that I must actually find the coin, not buy it. All these have either been dug or randomly found in my change. I didn't do any roll-hunting for any of them, either. Along the way I have upgraded each coin whenever I found one in better condition. Amazingly, after hunting like a psycho maniac for 29 years, I still have 21 holes left in my collection. These are mostly just the Philadelphia and Denver mint coins. The only S-mint coins I am missing are the 1909 regular and the 1931. I watched a friend of mine dig a 1931-S right in front of me one time. Someday, probably when I retire and start traveling all over the place, I hope to complete this set of found coins.
