Finds from 2 quickie hunts

[Goes4ever]

been pressed for time last couple days but got an hour in yesterday and an hour today.
Yesterday went back to the empty lot I was at tuesday and got a merc and 2 wheats 1914, 1935

today I just stopped at a old tiny park that is close to my work, got a 1944 wheat, buffalo, and the wierd looking button. Not too bad for a couple hours of time.

Nice little assortment of oldies. The E Trac rocks. Did you ever stop and think...There must still be trillions of coins prior to 1960 still in ground in just half of this country.
If it ever stops raining here I can get back to business, and if people keep buying E Tracs they all will be gone soon.

That is a very cool button. I know you probably did some research but this button came about after an incident with Teddy Roosevelt while hunting in 1902. His hunting party caught a small bear and tied it up for Teddy to shoot but he refused saying it was not sportsman like. That is so cool Terry. Here is a cartoon from 1902 depicting the incident. Congrats on the find. -- Randy

Ok my wife knew the story of the Teddy Bear and I didn't. I must have fallen asleep or was mesmerised by a girl during this time in history class. " Actually I think it was the lunch bell." Anyway, awesome story and CONGRATS !!! on finds,
