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.

Columbus Day Search...


Today is Columbus Day and weather pretty good other than chilly. I went to the park at the beach to search some, the finds are starting to get thin not many people coming down to the lake now. Found some clad, nothing in the TotLot except for one button on the backside it says "Waterbury Co's Inc. Conn." On the way back to my car I found this ring in very good condition the middle stone is pink and the side ones are clear has no mark. I believe it's not real but makes a good addition to my collection of rings. Also found a 1958 nickel that I need for my album. Tomorrow I plan on going to the park I searched the other day, has basketball courts, tennis courts and the bleachers by a couple of ball fields.
