Interesting finds - without a metal detecor

1630Boston

Chris Neuzil showed off this set of dimes with an interesting connection. His friends Joanne and Bruce Taylor have two Rottweilers, so they get out a lot walking the dogs. Each dime was spotted by eye on a walk near their home in Reston, VA.

I thought it was amazing that they found all three 20th century design types and that they are in such nice shape. The Merc even has quite nice toning. Neither of the Taylors is a collector. And yes - they have kept looking at and around the find locations. The dates are 1913, 1936, and 1956

@1630Boston ... That is interesting.... Especially the older two, to be surface finds. Buried I could understand. Cheers, RickO

And when you spot that "Look" on the ground you know it isn't clad.
