couple finds today

konsole

I've been going to an old beach in town that closed about 20 years ago. I went there again today and find a couple interesting things. I guess those are a bunch of different kinds of bullets. The matchbox is a Ferrari Berlinetta and it use to be green. It's still a little wet from rinsing so thats why it has the "wet" spots. Apprently its one of the last ones on this page...

The other 2 tractors were found on a different day. I also found a Bicentennial Washington quarter and a 1940 Jefferson nickel.

I got to detect the yard of a house that I lived in as a kid. I managed to recover a half dozen of my own personal Matchbox cars I lost. It was kind of a cool experiance.

Those are some interesting finds. I'm surprised that there are no old silver coins found.

"Matchbox. Made in England by Lesney".

Ahh, brings back fond childhood memories.

Oddly enough, I received a 1940 nickel in change about two weeks ago.

I hope lead gets up into the silver price range because I have found a bunch of lead fishing weights and bullets at this beach.
