Last hunt for 2009 ~ 1951 Silver quarter & Trade Token!

Hello!

Well, today was my last hunt for 2009. I took an extended lunch today to go dig some treasures! I ended up with five wheat cents dating from 1924 to 1956, a 1951-D Washington Quarter, a trade token, and a some clad. The front of the trade token reads, CLUB CIGAR STORE/ L D / EUGENE OREGON. And the back reads, CLUB CIGAR STORE / L D / 5c IN TRADE.

I took pic's of the quarter and token before I cleaned them up. This 1951 quarter is my silver coin find #102 for the year. I was really trying to beat my silver coin total from 2008 (104 coins), but I didn't quite make it ~ I was very close though!

Thanks for looking!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Neil

PS,

Nice way to end the year, Neil.

Wish I had been feeling better this year and could have gone with you.

Just about all of us had a good year in 2009.

Let's do it again in 2010!

Congratulations on silver #102 for this year Neil
and that token is really sweet. You have done real well
considering you switched detectors and had to learn a
different one. One more day to go......maybe more?

Great silver and awesome token, Neil. What a way to end a great year.

I found your token listed in Richard Greever's tokencatalog.com. It's listed in Hemphill's book.
Does not give a date, although a similar token from the same store is dated 1942. Here's a link if you want to check it out:

Yeah, that token is actually a pretty common one. Still fun to dig out of the ground!
