Default Weekend hunt

I went metal detecting over the weekend at the old Cherry Point housing and found a 1939 Merc dime, some wheats and a 1945 Cyprus 1/2 Viastre coin. I have found 7 types of foreign coins in base housing. The Marines get around. I'll do some more hunting and see what else I can find.
