I went back to my door knock permission from yesterday. I found the 2 tokens a few inches from each other. One rang up right under penny range, the other rang up as a nickel. A little further down, I got an 86 at about 8". BOOM. Welcome me to the 1800s club! 1876s Seated Liberty Quarter. The wheats are 1920d and 1936. I also found some condom tin covers, 1 Merry Widow and 2 MW Price Perfectos.

On top of everything, after the hunt my partner had to hurry off, so I went inside to thank the lady. She wanted to talk so I sat with her for about 30 minutes talking about religion and local history. Toward the end, she asked me if I'd like to detect the 4 acres behind her house that I knew nothing about. Then she proceeded to tell me that I could also search around the house itself which had not been part of the original permission. Anyways, my plans for next weekend are already in place!

I would love some help on the tokens. The token catalog had a Mississippi PR & LT with a big G, but not with a big J. I found another token online that had the number 31526 on it, it looked exactly like my token except it said "Good for 5c Cigar".
