Vintage 1929-1939 Hy Vis Motor Oil advertising token

[treblehunter]

I went back this morning to another old permission of mine where I found a Walker Half and about seven wheats. It was all overgrown so I only spent about fifteen minutes there. First repeatable signal I got was a 12-42, 12-43, I figured it was a wheat so I moved on looking for higher numbers. It was telling me seven inches deep. After a few minutes I went back and pinpointed it and dug a deep plug, my pinpointer told me it was deeper. It ended up being about 11-12 inches deep, rang clear all four ways. I thought I had another King George, then could make out the Hy Vis on the front, sweet! I looked it up, vintage 1929-1939 token. Another deep find from my CTX, I'm going to take the mower there and cut the grass (I haven't even cut my own grass but once this year, keep making my 20 yr old son do it for me) I love tokens.

I spent the rest of the morning knocking on doors and talking to people, I met four more other metal detecting people, from them answering the door, as I always do around my part of the country, allot of nice people. Hopefully my phone will start ringing off the hook (I mean blowing up!) with new permissions. I lost count how many places I knocked at?

Enjoy the pix, before and after cleaning

I found one here in Pa about a month ago. It's kind funny how you find something you've never heard of before and then someone else finds the same thing shortly after.

Here's mine

Very nice token find Brad!
I'm very envious of the amount of tokens you guys in the US always seem to find.
The 'token craze' never really caught on here in Canada like it did in the US.

Thanks, lol. just been real lucky and learned what my Pro tells me are tokens. After realizing now how many I passed over thinking it was not a good enough signal. Good luck on all your next hunts.
