Last week I was visiting Grand Junction Colorado for a week of work related training and Raldall61 was nice enough to take me to a few of his hunting spots. First he took me to an old Ghost Town where I didn't find anything, but I sure had fun looking around. The next day we hunted a spot where three old houses were demolished by the city. Here we both found a few keepers. I found two indians (1907 and 1882) a few wheats, and an odd trade token that says it is good for 3 Cakes....and I can't read the rest. My last night I hunted in front of an old home that was boarded up and ready for demolition. Found two wheats and a 1924 Merc dime. Thanks again Randall61 for the superb week of after-work hunting on my mini-Vacation! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That token looks and sounds like it might be one of the old Palmolive cake tokens. I have found 3 or 4 of them myself.

Glad to hear that a fellow member took the time to give you a "grand Tour" of the town. Better yet you found some keepers :icon_sunny:
