I thought I had seen you post that design before and looks like it is popular in your area. Thanks for the post and I am going to quit being sorry and see if I can look some more for the
English coins but like you I have them a while and trade or give them away.

Nice design on ring, seems like you have showed something else with a similar design, could have been a ring also.

Johnny the five on the mandrel are from this year.
I should have lots more.
Unfortunately people like getting them as gifts.

Thanks Everett. It never ceases to amaze me the things that can be found almost anywhere.

That’s awesome Bruce ,,,, dang nice haul for being by the road !!!!!

[2ndoldman]

I have found several silver rings with similar designs Johnny. I will see if I can round some of them up and take a picture.

Just like riding a bike, I always work facing the traffic.

At least a hundred years Josh.

Nice finds that 1909 nickel sure is shiny. Be careful along the roadways.

[JoshinMO]

That has probably been there for a long time, cool!

[2ndoldman]

There is a 1972 US nickel in that pile Chuck.

I'll grant you Bruce that you do find a lot of trash but you also turn up some very interesting stuff. I'm always looking over the coins you find to see if I can identify them. It's another challenge like trying to Id an arrowhead but, sometimes, with more to work with.

Thursday and Friday were a change of pace and place this week.
I started out Thursday morning working a boulevard strip.
And as you can see it was right up against the road. The traffic noise got the better of me after a while so a switch to the nearby soccer/ baseball field was in order. Unfortunately not everything from playing fields is treasure.
But these types of things do keep the hunt fun.[ On Friday I decided to hunt the rest of that strip no matter how much traffic noise there was.
And the rewards were obvious. Not to shabby for just one block in my opinion. Trash is everywhere :sad: the best thing to do is make the best of it by recycling what you can. Hopefully by the end of the year the recyclables and clad will bring in a nice total.
