What's on the penny is a raw new cane that is an effort towards yellow onion unpeeled. What's scattered around the penny are veggie type canes: carrot, green bean sliced and cucumber.
At the bottom of the jar of pickled vegetables are those pearl and translucent white onions that I fell over recently. The top are the mushrooms that ClayChik loves so much.
The already cured items were stuck to a plug of "brine" cured and then filed and sanded.
