Well its been quite a while since I've posted or been on the forum.

Went back to my favorite park today and got me some goodies.


Got 2 silvers, a 1898 Barber and a 1961D rosie. Managed 5 wheats with the earliest being 1918.(2 no daters) Got my earliest Jefferson, a 1938. (Think that's as old as you can go). Also a buff, no date as of yet and I scratched the bejesus out of it.

Also what I think is a railroad key. Across the top it has N Y C S. I'm figuring the NY is New York but the other 2 letters have me stumped.....any help?

The rings are junkers and also got a flattened memorial.

Sorry no pictures of the nickels yet.

Thanks for reading and HH everyone.

This photo suggests it's a switch key from New York Central System railroad. https://www.google.com/search?q=new+york+central+system&biw=1366&bih=681&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAmoVChMI-JTXgbCkxwIVhTiICh2q3Q-X#tbm=isch&q=nycs+key&imgrc=omVYiBfQxSApHM%3A

Hope the link works.

Good to see you are getting out. That must mean you got your machine back (shoulda been a while ago). Grats on the silvers. At least you can get a date even if the barber was worn. Good ID ska. And obvi those rings are junkers....wth happened to the one on the left? :lol:

Been awile since I found a Barber dime so nice to see they are still popping out of the ground. Cool looking key as well. WD
