Title: Horse show Medals...40 years apart to month Post by: nad on August 28, 2011, 01:56:02 PM In '71, I found a medal from the Coventry Horse and Country show, abt 1941.. Lost by one Sally Sexton Jones.. Found in mid August .. Several days ago, I found a second medal she lost at a friend of hers house.Forty year span between the two, possibly almost to the day.

Title: Re: Horse show Medals...40 years apart to month Post by: nad on August 28, 2011, 02:47:33 PM Sally was a rude person.. I was sitting in a pharmacy , had the medal and went to leave. nearly knocked down by a "thing" coming through the door. "Get out of my $$$$$$$$$way". .Both medals are going into the frame I am making for the Historical Society. ....Trying to ID a pin lost by a Civil War vet, Fraternal Order medals, both husband and wife...Kind of interesting when you can say," So and so lost this.". Odd ball find is a 1908 Indian Cent found in a flower bed, with no evidence of having been in the ground..Part of the Universe trying to help me.. I am trying to find a 1909 S Indian cent (valuable and rare)..All the cents I have found fit, into empty slots on the same page as the 1909S ...If I was better at math, I'd try and figure the odds, but it is probably in winning the lottery range..
