I went back out to my sister-in-laws, in-laws place yesterday. This is the same place I found the Golden Gate Bridge badge, and the Walker half.
It was pretty hot and humid, plus mama had plans to take me out for my annual fathers day Outback steak dinner. So I only hunted the farm for about 2 1/2 or 3 hours. Unbelievably I found ANOTHER Walker! The coolest part about it, Jen, and both of the boys were standing there as I dug it up!!

Shortly after that I popped a couple more wheats and a .925 kids silver ring!!
The goodies!

He's done it again! Beautiful Walker, Tim! Great details on it. That design has always been one of my favorite US coins. You're on a roll, buddy! :thumbsup02:

Glad you had an awesome Father's Day! :clapping:
