Im pretty sick and have been for the last couple days so not much hunting but i had a little itch so i decided why not hit up my front yard again, right away i get a quarter signal on my ace and i dig a clad quarter i dont mind finding them at all lol. Well the next signal i get bounces between 50 cents and 25 Cents, so i cut the plug and rescan the hole still in there so i remove some more dirt to see the edge of a bronze colored coin i pull it out and this is what i see which is leaving me a little confused...i dont think i even know anyone that has been to alaska lol. I have no idea what metal this token is made from but i think its pretty neat. This token is the same size as a Morgan silver dollar and is just a wee bit thicker. HH

There's one on eBay. It looks pretty minty and has a bid for 6.99. Great find! I like finding stuff like that almost as much as old coins.
