Default Unusual finds today -
At least down here in our city these coins are hard to find. I worked a park's field for about 3 hours, dug 50 coins, the 1961 dime, silver nickel 1943, old nickel 1949 and a wheat 1945.



I also dug this Washington quarter - old George sure took it in the shorts when he tangled with the lawn mower ! You can see part of the eagle's wing & foot.



Had almost forgotten what silver coinage looked like Lots of winds today, steve in so az
