    Hello everyone,
    So I'm feeling stronger and recovering pretty well.
    Monday and Tuesday I did some detecting after work at my local park in the Bronx NYC.
    Only bad thing is the allergies hit me hard this year!

    St. Mary's Park totals..
    1 - Mercury Dime (US Silver #42 for 2021)
    1 - France 2 Francs 1932

    I found some information on this overall button I found. It's a vintage SMITH'S brand..

    Great finds again Paddy. Glad to hear your doing better but yes, it’s spring and the tree pollen is strong this year. Take care and get fully recovered. You need to be able to clean up all of NYC’s parks. :)

    Thanks.. The only bad thing about St. Mary's park is that it's a famous spot for heroin users. There are so many used needles everywhere I detect. It's really sad. I try my best to dispose of them in the needle containers the Parks Department provide. I have to be very careful even when I kneel down because it's a hazard.. :confused:

    As always Ed, nice finds. When I first read your comment: So I'm feeling stronger." My mind flashed to, "feeling stronger than you were before the problem? Thinking of that old joke; I broke my hand and the doc said I'd be just fine. I asked if I could play the piano after it healed. He said he didn't see why not. I replied, that's great news. I couldn't play before.
    Seriously, I'm glad you are on the mend and able to get out and do your detecting. Be careful out there. Allergies and needles are never a good thing.
