    Surprise find today!!

    Beautiful! So much better to see that come out of the hole than the deep old cans I find around here…

    half dime

    So it is a half-half-dime? 😄 I can imagine you were disappointed to begin with to see one side wiped out. Then the elation started to creep in as you realized what it might be. Nice find!

    Back out to the pasture

    Harvest time!

    Quite a few of our club members wandered through the second day. I was just a little more persistent…. 😁 I neglected to mention I also picked up a bottle cap still attached to an intact old, large Heinz 57 bottle. It was about 2/3 full of liquid which I thought was water. I didn’t want to...

    Got milk?

    I am hoping! I plan to check out the Ohio merchant token catalog from library (again) when it is available.

    One of my hobbies

    That is sort of what I figured. I have also noticed if I force myself to continue something past a certain point it is no longer fun. So knowing when to stop in any detail orientated hobby is probably essential to continuing the hobby.

    Cow pasture hunt

    Looks like there should be some more hiding out there! Between your tested and sealed token and the Sunoco token, looks like somebody was involved in the gas station business.
