An Afternoon at SeaBreeze...

This afternoon we took our son to SeaBreeze Amusement Park, the weather was cloudy and cool but still a Great day of Smiles. At one of the rides 360 degrees, I was taking pictures of them on the ride after they finished and walked over to me I than spotted a couple of coins on the ground (a dime and 2 pennies). Later, before leaving I saw two girls bend down and pick up three coins, this was at the entrancce of the park.

Coin Shooting this morning at two parks...

This Morning I went Coin Shooting at two local parks, mainly checked out the Tot Lots. These places I have been to many times the last couple of years. The first park is next to my sisters house, when I got there I see that some changes have been made, part of the wooded area has been cut down and the park extended. The search here has produced .57 cents 3 dimes, 2 nickels and 17 pennies and a button. I searched for about an hour.

I then went to the second park, also searched for an hour. Did pretty good here, found $1.42 and a couple of buttons. Found this $1.00 coin which registered a strong quarter on my ACE 250, when I dug it was about 2 inches down next to the parking lot at first I thought it was a quarter but than saw that it was a little larger thats when I saw that it was a $1.00 coin. Than I got 2 quarters, 1 dime, 3 nickels and 7 pennies from this park.

This Morning, coin shooting at two schools...

This morning I went out coin shooting at two elementary schools, on the way to the first location it started to rain. I hoped that it would stop, was light with some fine drizzle was a while when it finally did stop. I didn't find a whole lot but didn't come out empty handed either, found .24 cents one dime, one nickel and 9 pennies. After here, I went to the second school here I did much better found $2.06 and a fancy button. It was 6 quarters, 4 dimes, 2 nickels and 6 pennies. As I was getting ready to stop for the day a young boy came over to me and asked if he could help me dig, I told himm that I was finished and getting ready to leave. He asked some questions so the two of talked for a short time.

Very Warm Morning for Coin Shooting...

Went back to the park at the beach for some Coin Shooting, did okay.found some coins at the Tot Lot, before finishing at the play area I found what I thought was shell bracelet sticking out of the woodchips under the kiddy slid. Turned out to be a box covered in little shells with a yellow ribbon tied around it. When I got back to the car I opened up the mystery box, inside I found a rosary and some kind of plactic bag which that I thru out. The only thing from that I kept was the rosary. The box was wet and in poor shape so I tossed that too. Did find a lot of coins, also what looked like some type of clip, after I got home I took it apart and found that it had 2 dimes and 3 pennies. Also found a key and a wheat penny 1953D.
