    dug a 1838 anti slavery token i think

    got an invite from dennis to detect an old farmhouse this morning. my only finds were some clad, a 1936 wheat, 3-7/16ths lead round balls, and a 1838 anti slavery token. it reads am i not a woman and a sister with a date of 1838 at the bottom. on the reverse it reads united states of america on outer, with a circular wreath inside, and in the center it has liberty, and the date of 1838 under it. this afternoon i stopped at a park and snagged a 1961-d dime and a few bucks in clad. hh all.

    Wow!
    If that is indeed what that is, that is a really cool find. This underscores the requests that hopefully someday you can get some photos up. Congrats on the finds
