Storms on way

Thought I'd beat the rain and try the terrain today. I spent two hours in an old park that has been hit numerous times, and I believe it needs a rest. Seven pennies is all I could muster. On a good note though, one was a wheatie(1952-s). This puts my running total at $21.84. An interesting token find could turn out to be special though, as the historical museum has contacted me about this find. It is the size of a large cent and says "One Penny" on front, yet the reverse states "1868 chartered Feb. 5 by City of Waukesha". I truly don't know what to make of it and found the best place for this would be a local museum. The curator is excited to document this piece and I would be pleased to contribute this piece of history for all to see in our community. I have an appointment tomorrow at 3 and will keep you informed as to it's origin. HH ~Andy~
