Had to work this long weekend, but managed to get out between storms after work. Here are the finds for the last resent hunts.

At first, I had no idea what it was......until I saw the stamp on it. It's a lady's hair clip.

Here's the coins I dug. Nice coin from Austria, and silver is always a welcomed find.

A Little More Info. On Hollywood Pin-Up

" Hollywood Pin-Up. In going after the big buyers, Alcoa was not neglecting little markets. Typical was the 'Hollywood Pin-Up,' an aluminum clothespin. Its inventors were two neighbors in Van Nuys, Calif., who got tired of hearing their wives grumble about ersatz clothespins. Alcoa helped them perfect the pin, licensed them to use its color process, 'Alumilite,' at a nominal royalty. Del E. Webb, contractor and co-owner of the New York Yankees, financed them. Last week, the Del E. Webb Products Co. was busy shipping out 80,000 pins a day, expects to use 2,500,000 pounds of aluminum a year.
