Met up with the world's best detecting host, NZ49er, in NW Missouri on Saturday. Fun hunt and by the end of the day I was pooped. We both got several cool finds, and as a new detectorist, he taught me a lot.

Anyway, in my bag, pictured:

1st ever V nickel (toasted)
1935 Washington
Vintage Broach
Trade token. (I could use some help identifying it, "Good for 5 cents in Trade" on one side, "10677" on the other side)

Not pictured:

Wheatie 1942
Mo Tax Token
Pocket knife

Iron:
Spool bowl
Reins guide
Bridle piece
Buckle

Lots of bullets, oil lamp bits, square nails, clad and trash.

Big thanks to NZ49er (who I met on Treasurenet) for hosting and all the research. He got a lot of great finds too but he'll have to post them. From memory a merc, a round ball, 2 V nickels and several wheaties. We have another hunt lined up before he leaves our fair state.

Thanks for peeking at the latest goodies, Peace out

Glad to have you buddy! Hope we can get on some 1800s coins next go around. That is a nice brooch and your coins cleaned up nicely.

The token was for a trade stimulator. Better known as a slot machine. And you weren’t too far from my neighborhood most likely! East of KC
