Went out on a hunt today with a friend to a foundation that's on an 1866 map. My first signal of the day, 68 on the at pro and out pops an 1863 Oliver boutwell Miller token (my second one). Hunted for about 4 hours and picked up things the whole time. My last find, 77 on the at pro, giving me that solid coin signal. Out pops an 1772 King George 3rd. It was thinking I was never going to find a coin there. We had a fun day, thanks for looking. image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

Nice finds Tony. I'm amazed that you found a second Oliver Boutwell Miller token..... and this one had the date, unlike your first one (1863). I'm assuming the KGIII is a counterfeit because most of them were. That 2 looks kind of weird in the date. Good hunt man! :thumbsup:

Excellent finds man. I'm a big fan of store card tokens and CW tokens in general. Some were made on poor dies or with crappy copper and don't do well in the ground. Yours looks fantastic.

Nice KG3 and button as well

Here's a couple closeup pics of your copper and token that I took with my phone. Figured I'd add them to your post.
