MINT_MARQ Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 12/01/2007 08:54 am Hi everyone, I got out a couple hours last weekend and here are my finds. One of the pennies is 1954D and the ring I suspect to be gold, but I am not positive yet. I threw out a lot of screws, nails, foil pie pans and the like. The only trash that I did not throw away is the chunk of metal in the picture. It almost looks like a bone on one side with an unusual patterned surface. My wife thinks it was probably solder that fell on the grass. Thanks for looking Image: 0001529.jpg 90.01 KB Image: 0001530.jpg 81.86 KB Report this Post to the Staff

MINT_MARQ Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 12/01/2007 4:01 pm I would say the ratio was 40% good stuff 60% junk The funny part is that the good stuff was all in pockets in the park. For instance about half the pennies and all of the dimes was in a 2 ft by 2 ft area behind a baseball backstop, like someones pocket had a hole in it. Ken Report this Post to the Staff

I have found many things in areas like that ,, most of the time I think that the folks who lost the coins were sitting in lawn chairs watching the sports event .standing and yelling and sitting back down kinda has a slight scattering effect on what falls from the pocket . one of the best pocket dumps I have found was 3.83 cents in the smae hole . Thanks for sharing the finds with us ! Metalman Report this Post to the Staff
