San Francisco Chief - Santa Fe Railroad Medallion

Here is a find from several years back when I lived in California.  Found this one on the beach.  It is a medallion that marked the inaugural trip (June 6, 1954) of the Santa Fe Railroad's San Francisco Chief passenger train. Here is a wiki link that provides more details on the Train.  Cool find.

Night Time Coinshoot Gets Clad Coins!

Decided to do a night time coinshoot after work today.  With the time change and shorter days, was well past dark when I began searching a local playground.  Was nice because no one was there; was no problem pinpointing finds.  Used a really bright LED Flashlight to locate a number of clad coins!

Today's finds:

• 5 Quarters
• 8 Dimes
• 2 Nickels
• 8 Pennies
• Token and a Canadian Penny
