lol I never look at your signature, but now that you forced me, I've got two ox knobs in one day :grin:. As for hanging with the youngens, they told me they were taking it easy on you so they wouldn't have to cart your body out of the woods. rofl
 
Nice spot, and nice cleanup. I haven't gotten silver in change (not including my recent luck) in years.

Every year fire depts collect for Muscular Dystrophy, and I always scan through ALL the change we get hoping for a silver. 40% war nickels and wheaties are the only oldies I've been able to score though.
 
yes very nice Dave now if you could only do that cleaning job with a colonial copper , George would adopt you and call you son lol rofl rofl i'm not so sure if thats a good thing lol rofl :poke: :tongue:.. you guys are neck and neck in competition for that ox knob crown as George stated he found two in one day last weekend so you can see he's really trying hard to win something this year. lol lol :tongue: :poke:
 
Uhh...Dave? Is this what happens when you get old? Your like Herbert (the old guy on Family Guy)....Herbert....refer to me as ren or stimpy will ya?

LOL he can have the memorial crown! i'm not fighting him for that one! :poke: but i am going for the copper crown this year. thumbsup01 i may think about leaving the oxknobs in the ground so he can have that crown too :confused: he'll get crwoned twice at the end of the year :bop: :bop:
 
Hey Dave, quit living in the past lol 2009 is over, you can get rid of that copper count anytime now ;) Just saying, since you are asking me to read you signature rofl We'll see who's gonna get some lumps at the end of this year :bop: :bop: bad Dave :bop: lol

Don't you guys farm out there? lol An ox knob is to colonial hunters like a pull tab is to park coinshooters :yes: We find them a nuisance :mad: They are a brass threaded knob that gets screwed onto an ox horn. This keeps the ox from hurting you or another ox. They usually fall off when plowing the fields. Ask Del to show you his exquisite collection ;)

it's not living in the past..it's motivation to get 51 this year ;) :poke: rofl
 
Actually, I think this is becoming more and more common - that is, getting silver, etc. in your change - maybe just a sign of the times/economy. One of my better 'finds' last year was this Standing Liberty I got in change from my BigMac meal at Mc D's. I probably should've gone back and inquired if there was any more in the clerk's drawer...

OUCH! That Standing Lib has seen better days lol But it is worth it's weight in silver. It's ironic that these coins are probably being cashed in because the owners need the money, but they are actually giving them for 1/10th to 1/15 their value. If they only knew they could bring them downtown and get much more for them. :confused:
