Short hunt after work today, the bullet and the medal best finds.

As I was walking back to my car (familiar way to start a find story, isn't it?), I passed a house under construction. They had just spread out the enormous pile of dirt they created when they excavated the basement and are going to put sod down. I asked if I could go over it real quick. First two minutes, I found the George Washington bicentennial token from 1932. It was right on the surface. Mount Vernon is on the reverse. About size of a half dollar, likely bronze.

Thanks for looking. Happy hunting! (PS: bought a new detector today, a Teknetics Gamma 6000, will pick up this weekend in Ashland, VA). Can't wait!
