RE: MY FIRST PENNY WITH MY :garrett: YELLER FELLER!!

[XE1UFO]

Dear Friends:

Here is something VERY strange. I was out in my back yard doing pinpoint practice with my Yeller Feller (alias Ace 250) and I found my very first coin (first with this machine). What was weird about it is that it is an American penny, and I am 600 miles South of the border! And it looks like it may have taken a hit with the lawnmower.

Woo hoo. Your first coin and it is a foreign one

Way to go! It's probably a zinc cent and just rotted away.

There are a lot of Americans sneaking across the border into Mexico I hear. They should probably erect some sort of fence to keep them out. Imagine only 3 people living in a 2 bedroom apartment that could easily hoouse 20 or 25.

I assume you are an Ex-Pat?

The old stinkin Lincolns get around. I have quite a collection of Mexican coins and I'm well over a 1000 miles from the border. Some years ago I found one from the thirties in my neigbors yard Here's one I foundunder a tree at a local school, a $100 one.
