    June 10th finds from a city lot.

    Yesterday I didn't plan on going detecting but when I walked out the door and seen how ideal it would be for detecting so I had to grab my detector before I left. John (the guy that owns the tobacco shop) always likes to see my finds and today wasn't any different, I brought a couple along to show him. After purchasing my tobacco and tubes I went to a lot right behind the tobacco shop where I've found good stuff in the past and I managed to score me a barber dime, it's got some stubborn crud on it yet and I had to give it a rest and take some pics . . . . . here are the finds
