i was at an area next to a river that used to have fishing shacks on the banks dating back many decades.
So i am convinced there must be some old stuff there. Until today i only found a few newer coins.
Today, feeling greedy, i decided to only dig signals 80 and above on my Simplex+. It goes up to 99 and those higher numbers could mean silver.
But it was canslaw day. Every thing pictured rang up very high.
I've dug a fair number of beaver tail pull tabs but this is the first can i've dug that used a beaver tail. And it was very deep, nearly a foot.
The most interesting thing is something i hope someone can help identify.
It is designed to be turned by a wrench. The block letters FENTON are easy enough to read but the cursive writing isn't clear to me.
Seems to say Concours Wyne.
Any ideas appreciated!
ps just did a search for Fenton and found a photo of an item up for auction.
seems to be a small cover for a custom car wheel. So that might be what
i have too.
pps yep, that is what it is. turns out it says Concours Wyre. found one for sale on ebay:
