Hi all. Got out today for a few hours and enjoyed the great weather we've been having lately. Went to a park this morning and found a little clad. Went to a grass parking lot for a local high school football field and swung for maybe 15 minutes when 2 guys showed up to mow. Sooooo......I decided to hit another park I saw on Google Earth and of course it had on street parking only and the street was full! It wasn't looking good when I remembered passing an old elementary school that had very wide grass easements between the curb and sidewalk. Was there maybe 10 minutes and got a nice tone that jumped from quarter to half very close to where they had just installed those new yellow wheelchair stops in the walk. Out popped this monster. Now I see why proper numismatists pitch such a fit when we noobs call a "cent" a "penny". This is a 1905 English Penny. I threw in the IH for scale. Thanks for looking and overlooking my ramblings.
