More silver today ( coins) and the ugliest "Buffalo" one has ever seen....

[Magyar]

Rain is predicted for tomorrow, so I took advantage of the sunny and slightly breezy weather this morning at a favorite beach.

Much sand had moved as a result of the hurricane ( or had been moved by cleaning crew) , so beach surface was down to "bare bones" in the area that I chose to hunt.

Hunted the dry sand for 2 hrs. and then the damp sand 2 hrs. as the tide was receding.

Found clads,a "wheatie", and loads of junk ( which I won't bother including in the pics).

Also some silver coins , and a token which I am presently researching .The transit company was still in operation as of 1975; will phone the City Hall History Department tomorrow to learn just when the company met its demise.

Here's the link to info re: token.

Looks like it had only one route. Is this the back? No idea when the token was made though. Looks like a keeper!!

All were found at the beach over the past 4 years.

My favorites are the motorcycle and the horse.

The car is a monopoly one. Motorcycle and horse are awsome!! The back one looks like a bear holding something. Thanks for sharing. I will have to bring my camera home and take a picture of mine. Love the old lead toys.
