2nd day trying out the DFX, Also need help with ID

[MackDog]

went to the hot park again, this time only used the DFX. Boy does it rock. went through all bottle cap infested areas and dug 0 caps. It was so nice I decided to dig all nickels and plumbs but no gold today. Man the DFX is right on the money with pinpointing and depth. Found over 50 clads and scored a cool token from Red Lodge Montana (11 inches), a Chinese coin from 9 inches and in one hole there were 3 dimes 2 1965 and a1964 Silver Rosie. would appreciate any help with time frame or dents on the Chinese coin and the Samuel Holppi Red Lodge Montana/Good for 10c in trade token.

Thanks for looking happy hunting

Update on token, Thanks to Idahotokens

Samuel Holppi is listed in the 1903 & 1905 city directories as "General Merchandise" at 106 S. Billings Ave. in Red Lodge. They have evidently renamed streets in Red Lodge, because there is no longer a Billings Ave. Rubick's MT book shows both a 5¢ and 10¢ from this merchant. He quotes an eBay sale of the 5¢ one at $22 and of the 10¢ one at $5.

With Pescadores help
The Chinese coin is from Emperor HSUAN TSUNG
AD 1821-1850

Reign title: TAO-KUANG, AD 1821-1850
S-1512, "BOO CIOWAN" (Board of Revenue mint). The Manchu mint name translates to Pao-Ch'uan, or "The Fountain head of the Currency".

Thanks for the help, that's what makes this board special
