Fishscale, Old toy soldier.

[GioTheGreek]

I hit a couple of spots today and found these.


Brass bracelet, I believe...

Old lead toy soldier... not sure if he's a conquistador or a WWI figurine.

Crusty copper...

1920 Penny in good shape.

And this 1919 Fishscale. (Canadian 5 cent piece)

Happy hunting!

That would be a WW I doughboy.

Nice digs

I like that 1919 nickel.

Ha! Based on the thread title I thought it was MY post. My first good find was a fish scale and recently found a toy soldier. Nice finds!

 

[GioTheGreek]

Haha, Grant. I'm going to search for your post now.

Hey Gio, if you are in Canada, your soldier may be a kneeling rifleman by Breslin, manufactured by brothers Sam and Ed Breslin of Toronto. It was a copy of an American-made soldier of that same time period (before, during, and after WW2.) Just an educated hunch, based on a grainy photograph in my old Toy Soldier Identification guide. Best of Luck, Sub

Gio, post about soldier is called "searching a root cellar" or something like that. I never posted about my fish scale but wrote a blog about it. Click the banner below

Some good finds there man.

I love finding old toys of any kind, no soldiers yet though.

Good shape on your coins.
