1934 Chicago Worlds Fair, and first gold ring of the year

[curbdiggercarl57]

Went out hunting today, dug a elongated penny from the Chicago Fair, and a nice 18kt man's gold ring. Been a real long time for any decent gold. Thanks for looking,

Thanks. Never found any elongated cents up until a week ago, now I've dug two. Happy about the ring, but that's something that I would sell in a heart beat, but the penny I'll cherish.

Hello CB!
You're doing better with those tokens aren't you?
That World's Fair token is simply outlandish!

It's strange how things happen; I seem to have a weird knack for finding tokens. I found 3 more so far this week but nothing like the Trinidad Bar 2-1/2 in trade from last week. Here's a pic of the best; the other two were aluminum junkers. The Chambers token is about the size of a nickel and says "GOOD FOR FIVE CENTS IN TRADE" on the reverse. It's either copper or bronze. At first, I thought it was a washer.

Thanks!

The rolled penny is a super find. I found one from the St. Louis World's Fair. Yours is just as good. Great find.
