Lately the weather has cooled down somewhat.
And because of that I chose to simply walk the beach at low tide and not get soaking wet in the water.
While waiting for the tides to be right I could not resit hitting the grassy areas.
Who can turn down free gas money.
Once on the beach the older stuff once again starts to appear.
None of this is special. It just adds to the year end recycle pile.
I find it strange that so many spoons are lost or left on the beach.
This one is just plated and there is nothing special about it other than the CPR on it.
CPR could refer to the Canadian Pacific Railway line here on the island.
On 1 July 1912, the CPR acquired the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway, a railway on Vancouver Island that connected to the CPR using a railcar ferry.
Or it could have come from one of the CPR steam ships.
This is the CPR terminal in 1930.
The coin finds this time were for the most part not very exciting.
The one on the far right is a 1949 English six pence.
Although the Chinese cash coin was a cool find.
The only real treasure this time was a tiny 10K signet ring.
Thanks for following along and happy hunting to all of you.
