I do pile my daily finds in a pointed mound when i think it might rain. Then hopefully the rain washes off most of my clay mud....hopefully.

Those are fronts and backs of two sets of cans. Dried up amazingly well for so much rain the day before. My 5 gallon buckets for collecting keepers, were 4-5" full yesterday.

Hi Lori, Thanks for the pics. Unfortunately those are pretty common & have little value in that condition.The 2 different TAB cans with the older style 1964 zip top pull tabs (those particular pull tabs some refer to as DogBone zip tabs) would be worth keeping if in better shape. Keep looking though, you may just stumble across some rare ones. THANKS, LEON.

I got them in nicer condition. Rarer cans in that condition may be worth saving but common cans in poor condition usually not worth saving. only problem is a non can collector would not know a common $1.00 can from a rare $1,000.00 can so for a non collector would be hard to know which ones to keep & which ones to toss back. A good guide line to follow would be almost any pull tab beer or soda can would usually not be worth keeping but there are exceptions. LEON.
