Silver, nickel, foreign and five wheat's.

I went for a two hunt after I got my honey do list done. Almost didn't make it. I didn't have my camera with me, but the house is older with a field stone and mortar foundation. I only did 1/3 of the lawn. Got this 1957 Silver dime.

A 1940 nickel a little ruff.

This is the total. Got a bell. Sadly no marbles. Five wheat's 53, 52,44,36, and 1919.

I did have the camera for a drive we took today. I had to get out. It's supposed to get cold and snow. It was t-shirt weather today, 60 deg. I wanted to check out this county park( in the next county) and passed it off as a great place to take a drive to. I think she was on to me.

Md'ed for less than an hour. Got a little clad, but this was a surprise to me. Right under the swing I got a good quarter hit and told my wife maybe it a ring. I said no it's a quarter. I never saw a quarter with Balboa's face on it.:shrug:

Found out Panama makes their money the same weight and size as US. money. They change to clad the same year and it is worth the same, 25 cents. They interchange their money with the US. money in their country. I did find a quarter. Cool find on a mountain top. Back.

What part of West Virginia do you live in. I am in Huntington. Would be nice to find a hunting partner close to home. Great finds by the way. HH...Jesse.,
 
Great finds John,
That Panamanian 1/4 looks good and so does the country park.
That looks a great place to hunt.
:cheers:

I found one of those threaded stoppers earlier this year with the Fleur-de-Lis on it. Mine had a manufacturer name. I found one on ebay. They came off of a metal hot water bottle. Here is a pic of mine.

Hey John,
I've got brass handles that are very similar, just a bit cleaner.
:rofl:

That thing has got to be heavy.
Do you have trouble taking it out of the country? Do they ever think you might have a bomb inside?
