Out in the back yard again with my son

[Peter K]

Hi again,

2nd time around for Nathan in the back yard after his adventure with the half penny and started out by finding this commemarative coin along with the other coins. Apart from a ring pull I managed to find this brass thing which I have no idea what it might be.

Looks like a valve from a car or truck tube.

Well done Nathan ... Thats showing dad how its done
I wonder what you'll find next time

Now if only I could find something like that in my backyard! Would sure beat the rusty nails

Woah!! Didn't actually recognise the coin til you linked the original image! That's the very same one I scored in primary school! Had totally forgotten about that coin!

The commemorative coin was still a surprise, not a bad find for the back yard.
