    Great Weekend!

    FINALLY got a chance to spend some time metal detecting and found some neat stuff including a couple of tokens, part of a wristwatch which turned out to be white gold, an old padlock dated 1902, a couple of silver Rosies and a handful of Indian Head and Wheat pennies.Name:  MD1.jpg
