We waited four years to detect across the road from the site that we have found civil war bullets, buttons and seated coins. After they bush hogged the area, my son
and I started hunting and he found 1828 and 1843 large cent, 1854 three cent piece and 2 & 3 ring bullets. I started out by finding bullets as well but my best find was a
1846 WW Wilber Merchant Auctioneer and Notary public token. We were very happy to start finding some good stuff again. Here's a photo of the front and back of
the token.

That's a really cool token! You did well with the other coins and bullets too but that token is far more interesting!
8 Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it?
9 And when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I lost!’ - Luke 15:8-9

awesome find! If you have trouble researching it, send picture to Mark Parker of Western and Eastern Treasure magazine. He's the best researcher. He may have a website to send it to for faster info.
That is a GREAT token to find--and in Fantastic condition, too!
