Got my fix - some silver, a token and cheap gold

[Mirage]

Here is my stuff from the last week or so. Stuff is from four different sites. I have mostly been doing quick ½ hour to hour hunts here and there. One trip was to the ‘berg with Danimal and my son on the 18th. This last weekend I only was able to sneak in two ½ hour hunts. :P

Only thing really notable was this last Saturday’s hunt. I had about 30 minutes to pick up Nate’s dates corsage(Homecoming Dance) and be back to pick up my wife by 11 am. Since a decent detecting spot was within 5 minutes I had 25 minutes to detect. I got a decent deep signal. Dug down about 5 to 6 inches and it was still in the hole. Stuck the Sunray in the hole and got that strong copper tone that screams “Large”. Thought it was going to be trash but out pops the Palmolive Token. That was all I needed to get my fix. We have found some aluminum Palmolive tokens but never a copper one. Any idea as to aprox age?

Oh yeah, I did find a gold ring. But as per my usual – plated gold. It reads “+12k”.

Love the quick hunt's Mirage,sometime's they pay off more than the all-dayer's....I think it's more of a "concentration" thing....Wouldn't be right without the silver!!Palmolive token is cool,only seen a couple posted....Nice haul!!

Cool assortment of treasure Bob. A little bit of everything. Congrats on the goodies. Maybe you can get out more with the coming of the cooler weather. Good luck my friend!

Smiles!

Nice finds Mirage, especially considering you had such limited hunting time.

I know that feeling of when you say "I got my fix". It isn't always necessarily how long you spend detecting, sometimes its just coming home with something cool to add to the collection that satisfies the treasure seeker in all of us, at least for a few days until we can get out again.

The token guide I have shows your find as being made somewhere between the 1920's - 1930's.

I have found the aluminum types but never one made of any other composition. I like yours a lot, it looks nice and solid, unlike the aluminum ones.

Congratulations and continued good luck looking for those large cents.

A nice collection for a few hours out. That's a really cool token. Maybe you will get a little more time out since it is cooling down. Way to go!

Nice job for short hunts....sometimes they produce the sweetest finds

Detect when you have the time. I love the Palmolive token and the pendant with the cross. Not to mention the wilver!


Nice finds, Bob!

Bob, you are the wilver king at the Berg. Nice job on the zoap token. Now you can afford to buy soap for bathing. LMAO

Keep making KirkPA proud!

Nice ring Bob!
12K is kinda unusual me thinks.....

Keep safe...

Great finds.

Thanks all. Always good to get out and just find Stuff.

Johnny - thanks for the token info. This site where I found the token is killing me. All the good old stuff is very deep and I can only get the larger targets. There has to be some deep silver dimes that are "beyond reach". I'll have to get the 15 " WOT to this site....

Rudy - the 12k is unusual. My son says that in the US it's either 10k or 14k and that the ring most likely is from another country. I don't know.

I agree with Nate the Dude.
