Tin box penny cache hidden close to memorial of historic mine disaster.
This is a Tin box penny cache hidden outside the boundaries of the memorial of a historic mine disaster site. When you are parked at the road, the memorial is to the right; however, the cache will be located to the left behind a large tree well outside the boundaries of the memorial fencing. The tin can is in a clear plastic bag behind the tree.
Feel free to leave a penny in the cache and remember the year of the penny. Come back here and post anything about the year of the penny that you wish. I had a 1957 penny in my pocket, so I left that inside and this is what I'll post about the year 1957,
1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
The ’57 Chevy is one of the most recognized icons in the Automotive industry. Stylish and Sporty the there’s no doubt that it’s one of America’s best and most loved cars. The 1957 Chevrolet a few different trim levels; the base-model "150" series, the mid-range "210" series, and the upscale Bel Air series. An upscale trim option called the "Del Ray" was also available for 210 2-door sedans, and there was a limited production two-door station wagon called the "Nomad" and also even scarcer was the "El Morocco", a custom hand-built series that mimicked the Cadillac.
Under the hood Chevrolet had achieved an engineering milestone, Ed Cole worked magic developing Chevy’s small-block V8 engine. The original edition was enlarged to 283 cu, with several optional power packages available, pushing it up to 283 hp. The Super Turbo-Fire 283, a $550 option, produced the advertised 283 horsepower with the help of Ramjet continuous-flow fuel injection. On the outside the Bel Air was distinguished with more chrome and featured a golden grille set off with a heavy chrome bar that included parking lights. The rear fins were capped with chrome moldings and highlighted with anodized aluminum side trim panels. The fuel-filler door was concealed in the left rear chrome fin trim, a small but convenient detail that helped clean up exterior lines.
Have fun finding the cache and please visit the memorial.
Note: You are not required to leave a penny or post here if you choose to just find the cache for fun. Some take a penny from the cache that have a date that is significant to them and replace it with another penny - have fun!
