The title this time refers to both the rainy weather delays this last week and my newly adopted detecting style.
For some very odd reason many of my sites are producing far fewer goodies than they were when I first started hitting them.
So I have been forced to stop my drunken sailor style of leapfrogging it around from one treasure to the next and settle down to a crawl.
I have even taken to digging those accursed pull tabs in the hope that one of them might just possibly not be a pull tab.
This was one such "pull tab" signal and I really thought that it might be something special.
My first hunch was that it had something to do with an old rugby club.
After cleaning though it ended up in the junk jewelry pile.
It seems that at one time the CIBC bank gave out these pins to people for "TRYING" the new ATM machines.
It has been a struggle of late to find anything to put into the gas tank.
The roll of pennies were found, as is, on a ledge in the park washroom. Thankfully they were not strewn around the park for me to dig up.
And the iron skeleton key is kinda cool.
Chuck the Hong Kong coin is front and center for you my friend.
Speaking of pennies, I did manage a couple of older ones this past week.
The wheatie on the lower left will come back into play later on in this post.
In addition to the older pennies there were some nice old silvers as well.
Silver bling is never tossed aside by me.
Remember that wheatie?
Well as I said earlier, with this new coil, it is almost possible to predict when an older penny is under the coil.
When that wheatie showed up I had that feeling. But there was a slight difference to the top end of that tone.
That long silver bar was about three inches below the wheatie.
and it looked like this when it came out.
