Hello Tneters, here are my finds for the last 4/5 weeks of my commuter hunts, stopping to or from work during the week. Finally scored a gold ring for the year(1st gold 2011), the 1858 Flying Eagle was a surprise, I thought it was a IH until I got home, have not tried cleaning it yet afraid the eagle might disappear. Found another unidentifiable copper not far from the flying eagle spot. Thanks for looking and HH.

I used to have a swastica token like yours, or similar because there were several different styles that were similar. If you can go back and find a Coke swastica fob thread from this spring or early summer, there will be a lot there. There may be a date of 1910 on the other side? Very interesting.
 
Nice finds, found the same P button at one of my Civil War spots last year. Was told it was a police button. Talked to a few other tnet members who said they found the same P buttons at both Union and Confederate camp sites. The buttons were probably used as replacements.
 
Wow.that is a nice load of goodies you found.
 
Haha I thought this was my post from the other day!

Nice digs!

Thank you for all your replies and comments :icon_thumright: ! Here is a pic with my recent FE and one found a few years ago, the front of the Boy Scout token (guy on horse) and my 96 dug Mercury dimes found over the years, hoping to find 4 more this year to make it 100 Mercs.

Thanks again!
