    I have not posted much on this forum this year but here is some cool finds from the last couple of hunts. I have found many dog licenses but this is my first Bike License.

    This was today in a pounded park! I found a small area about 100 square feet that gave up these old wheats and a nice Barber dime. The 1909 is not a VDB

    Good Luck and Happy Hunting!!!!

    Nice find. I have never heard of a bicycle license until now. Esp when it either looks like it was worn as a bracelet or was fastened to the bike.
