Back To The Old Store / Got Milk ???
Thank's for the responses to the pope medal, Got a strange hit at the old store site, Dug down and got two 1919 wheat's, But I felt the trowel touch something a little deeper. I got down on my knee's and brushed the dirt back to see a face staring up at me. It was kinda spooky. I pulled the face out and it look's like a decanter or colonge bottle. Then two other bottles appeared, Then I found another florescent marble on top by a piece of pottery. Got a nickel hit in another dirt pile and turned up two more trade tokens with the same number as the ones yesterday, Man !!! They are ugly, I think they have concrete on them, Decided to dig a trashy sound and turned up another eagle button, Loud sound turned up two piece's of copper and a small copper wire. Then another button on the surface, Another piece of round copper, Then a key, Then a half dollar hit turned up a watch fob, It was so caked with build up that I couldn't even read it till I got home and cleaned it up a bit, Still needs to soak, It look's silver Has an eagle Reads Gail Borden Eagle brand Rev, reads BORDEN'S CONDENSED MILK CO. LEADERS OF QUALITY EST. 1857- NEW YORK ORIGINATORS OF CONDENSED MILK, It need's cleaned better but might be valuable, Started getting tired because I had to push over piles of dirt and bricks with my feet, Got another soft hit and turned up a sterling bracelet, Then a PAYMON'S ANTI-HISTAMINE bottle, I was ready to call it a day and decided to take a few last sweeps around where the front porch used to be and pulled up a green 1920-D nickel, It's in VF condition and if I can get the green off, It would make it a Hundrd dollar nickel. ENJOY the PICS.

The decanter is I think an Avon 1973 collector's pipe. I thought it was Avon so I did a search (used to collect Avon bottles untill they started reproduction or their bottles and ruined the value of the old ones) Still have a bunch. Anyway another good day for Coinhead I hope you can get the nickel restored. Catch you later, have a great day and the best of luck...........Richard
