Normally I'm reading stories about people digging up buried treasure -- today I buried some?!
I saved up my zincolns, costume jewelry, trinkets, curios and other bits & pieces I found while metal detecting this year. I finally filled up a mason jar. It's full of pennies from 1982 - 2010, along with a few older ones. These things aren't worth much today, but maybe they will be when somebody digs them up in 100 years or so. I've always been curious about who lost the things I've found, so I included a note in the jar. It's only laminated paper, so it won't last too long. Next time I'm going to include an engraved note.

Might have to at least put a Merc in the mix with a note. Thanks for the reminder!
