Saturday was a COIN day!

[oddcoins]

I went detecting downtown Eugene Oregon for several hours yesterday ~ found a total of 124 coins (over $5.00 face value), and not much else! 1951 Quarter, four silver dimes 1952 1954 1954 1963, 1943 War nickel, 1946 & 1948 nickels, 1913-S Wheat cent (catalogs at $7 in low grade!) and 28 other wheat cents 1917 to 1958, and an aluminum play dime, a type I've never seen before. The front reads, "NATIONAL HEROES JOHN PAUL JONES 1747 to 1792", and the back reads,"MAZUMA 10 PLAY MONEY". Anyone know anything about this line of play money?!
