June 10, 2012: Only one silver and a 1940s Tootsietoy Firetruck

Got back today to the park that gave up those two rings last week. Man, almost everything is new. Was able to eek out a 1952-d Roosie (silver coin #35 for the year - took me to Sept last year to hit 35) and a 53 wheat. Neat thing of the day is a 1940s Tootsietoy Fire truck. Specifically says "Made in the United States"! Some ebay auctions for the same piece said 1940s.

Also got some odd tag. Looks to be hand-inscribed with something like OTHILO?? Not quite sure...any ideas?

There's one small section of the park left, so it will be nice to finish this place up.

edited to add: yes, I scratched the hell out of Roosevelt's face :-).

HH all!
