I hope everyone had a great holiday. My time with the family was a happy affair with no drama.
I started my trip the day after Christmas. My first stop was a site I’ve hit before with lots of buried tin cans, not aluminum. Found lots of old relics here. It’s the pic with the large toy yellow Jaguar(rubber tires). A nice turquoise silver ring, St.Louis pennant pin, old wedding band, and old coupons.
Next stop, a park that used to be a block of houses in early 1900s. The pic with the RFD padlock(Rural Free Delivery). James Avery 925 winged ring, 1942&1919 dimes, nice 1925S wheat, ancient Chinese Cash, and extremely ornate spoon handle.
Next up, my favorite secret town that never disappoints. An old ghost high school where all the old stuff starts at 8”. An old park where you need to dig to 7” where there’s a layer of shell. 8 silvers: 1915D&1939 quarters, 1899, 1918, 1953 dime trifecta, 2 war nickels, and a sterling monogramed pendant(PY). A Mobile bus token, 25c trade token, a twisted silver bracelet with tiny gold blobs along the length of it, IMP padlock (Imperial?), nickel trifecta: 1899, 1936, & Jefferson’s, lots of cool marbles as usual here.
Next stop was a site where the state bought an area of old house to make way for a highway. The pic with an Infantry collar disk, war nickel, Sterling infant ring, 1954 play dime, and lots of wheats.
Last is a curb strip where I got some old wheats and an 1897 IH.
I’ve never found a Dorind’or Paris compact before. 1920s.
Not sure what the last pic is. Tiny religious charm with 3 chain attatchments. Reverse is a woman’s profile. Tiny blue glass beads.
Thanks for looking and hope to post more soon.
