Hey hey diggers!
Be forewarned Lincoln lovers...you really shouldn't see this lol
Out exploring some fields recently and at the end of the day while heading back to the car I noticed a well worn path to the nearby beach so I followed it to the shore. The tide was out and there was lots of exposed ground on the little stretch of this tidal river.
So I started finding pennies, lots of pennies! I'm usually finding older things on the old homesteads but when at the beach you take whatever you find. So, back to pennies...a good mix Canadian and American but many wheats and only two memorials maybe. Out of 35 cents 18 were wheaties! Not remarkable really but I'm in Canada and I don't usually find this many wheaties at one time or even in a whole year I might finds 4 or 5 tops. Where I seem to go an Indian head is more likely. Nothing newer than 1970 and then I thought there would be lots of vintage silver hanging around too but alas only pennies on the beach today.
So until next time...remember that the fields are your friends and beach is not so friendly to the coppers...I'm sticking with my friends!
Dates and mint marks in no particular order..well what I could see anyway lol
