Some well preserved coinage You have here ... Congrat's on the Multi-Silver Day ... I was thinking about hitting that Old School yard I found My 1899 Barber Quarter in the morning , had a few decent signals last time but the ground was still froze solid and My Chainsaw Way of digging threw frozen ground first thing Sunday morning would have been Disrespectful

Yes I'm usually lucky a one per hunt

good job,, the sun was out today heating the spot up for ya

Had to look at the medal again.

Maybe a bit of Museum Wax will bring that up nice??

Now THAT is what I call kicking!! Excellent hunts DO still happen! WTG man!

But did you have to use the brillo pad on the barber dime?

Tell me what the feelings were when that half appeared?

LOL I think most of the damage to the Dime was because of how close to the street it was.
But I did Nail her just above the Forehead with my scoop



the half was either very deep or kept sliding down in the hole.
I was getting frustrated trying to reach it, when all of a sudden I saw the edge,
but my first thought was Aluminum Token of some type .
I think that's my 4th. maybe 5th. Walker in the last 2 Years.
all 40's I think.
There sure are allot lost out there.
had to be kids, How else do you drop a half & not notice ?

I carry a Hard Plastic Ice Cream Scooper for "Me Precious Metal " finds ... Learned the hard way that Metal digging tools are a Bad thing to Silver and Copper coins , not to mention Relic's ...

i think this might be your token: John Quincy Adams Commemorative Token | National Museum of American History. I found a similar one a couple of years ago, different president I can't remember now. As I recall, I found out then that they were sometimes given out at schools by teachers as prizes.
