School Yard Surprise

[46Wheat]

Digging in my old high school athletic field tonight . It has been closed for 25 yrs and now is the town park/community center . It gets pounded by everyone in the area but it's convenient if I don't have a permission or long to hunt. I dug a 12-40 signal that I had to get identified by someone on my Fb group because I had no idea what it was . Turns out it's a Queen Elizabeth II jetton token . Never know what's going to cone out of the ground

I have included one pic from the Internet of a non dug example

Very interesting, I have never seen that token before.

The guy who id it gave a link and that's the only mention of it I can find anywhere . According to the token page he linked its a rarity of 89/100 . Im looking and I hope I can find out when it was minted

Btw I put it on a dime for scale . I had fun chasing that thing around in the hole

Like Sawmill Man said, I looked at that picture, and that broad is UGLY!

That doesn't detract from your find though Congratulations! I'd love to take an ugly lady home too

Anybody's guess on age, although I'd bet that it was made in 1967. I'll keep looking.
