Yes Starting to like it in non Trashy areas.

But Definately need my sovereign for Trashy spots,
& High Power Interferance areas. or Maybe the 305.

I wonderd if you got Caught in it.

After hitting 90 today,
I guess summer is officially Over Now
 

Great story, I wish I could do so well in any given week, let alone 90 minutes! I'd rather dig one shot dime like yours than 20 new ones.
That Franklin Mint aluminum coin (circa 1969) . . . You found one of these before? One time would be ok, but the 2nd one I'd want to load into a slingshot with Mr. Franklin Mint's name on it, especially the way it's dated 1919, (those "expletive deleted"'s ).

Any knowledgeable gas station attendant should give you at least 3/4 gallon for Miss Winged Liberty. But, knowledgeable gas station attendants are as rare as Merc dimes.

I searched ebay for "antique car coin series 2", there are several complete sets available. They universally say Franklin Mint in the title so I just assumed . . .
