Strapped on the trusty 6 inch coil and went out scouting curbstrips this afternoon. This one was adjacent to an old house that had been converted to a multi-unit apartment building. Near the base of a very large tree, about an inch down, I flip out this tiny coin. I thought it was one of those play money coins. I take a closer look and realize it's a 1854 Half Dime!! She isn't very pretty, but boy was I excited! Major bucketlister for me.
That curbstrip just kept giving. My second V nickel ever, 2 Buffalos, a Merc, and some old wheats. A couple cool buttons and an interesting little medallion. (I'm posting that medallion in the "Help Me Id" section too.) It started to rain really hard so I called the hunt short. I will be back to that spot, count on it!
Brings my yearly wheat count to over 300 and silver coins up to 64. What a fun hunt!! Thanks for looking.
