Back to the woods

[trapperart]

Went back to where I found the half eagle the other day. Found toasted wheaty and buffalo nic a cool old change purse top and the aluminum token thing with the Virginia state motto. I couldn't find any info on it, but I'm dead tired. Brain dead I think. Good luck to all. Art

Nice hunting. Pretty much done with hunting in this heat. An old change purse with the change in it would be my dream find

Trapper, thanks for sharing a picture of a vintage change purse clasp. A find like that really gets the imagination bouncing. So many questions. How old is it? Was it lost or stolen? How many and what kinds of coins did it contain when it arrived at it's final resting place?
Congrats on getting out.

Nice finds Art. Those aluminum tokens can cause a cardiac event when you see them in the bottom of the hole-LOL. WTG, Q.

Nice finds Art. It has been hot and humid in the woods these days.

Nice finds Art. This heat will sap the energy right out of you. Stay hydrated, and don't overdue. I like the Virginia token and wonder if the gold coin you found was in that change purse.
