    Big Canadian Penny

    Couldn't sniff out any Silver this time but did manage to find my 2nd Canadian LC (1916) this year. Also pulled a few Wheaties (1918, 40, 44) and a few relics. Definitely need some rain to soften up things! HH

    good finds bro!....I'm jealous of that Canadian LC, have never found one of those. Great recoveries, is that a locket that would open? I have some of those antique car tokens, is that like a sunoco token? Anyway, congrats on a good hunt and some nice keepers!

    The token is for a Dusenberg Straight 8 car; a similar token (on the 'heads' side only) appears here:

    The Franklin Mint Aluminum Coins. These were given away by Sunoco in 1969 as a gas promotion. The Sunoco emblem is within the small diamond design at the top border on the 'reverse'.

    Love those Can LC's. The leaf and vine design is cool. Nice digs!
