Had a few good hunts the past few days, my more productive sites are so deep in the bug infested woods, so i didnt stay long. The other day i got a nice 1847 LC, I also got an 1888 indianhead but it was toast, scraped some dirt off of it with my fingernail and the date went with it, lol... Today I found a nice Excelsior boy scout shoe token, july 1910.
ive seen a few of these posted but never found one,
Enjoy-

The boy scouts of 1910 had the privilege of enjoying that symbol on their tokens for what it really was - a symbol of good luck and fortune.
Darn Nazi's had to ruin it for all of us. It'll probably be another 1,000 years before we can use it again.
I like both the Large Cent and the token, great artifacts from two distant eras in American history. :thumbsup:

Its a Native American good luck symbol, that is what google says anyway.
