I'm an official member of the Naughty Coin Club (NCC) - Ya-hoooo!

***PLEASE CHECK OUT MY CONTEST IN THE "GAMES and CONTESTS" section for a chance to win some fabulous prizes***

Did I ever mention what a wonderful wife I have? :icon_scratch:

She LET me get out to detect for a few hours on Mother's Day before I had to barbecue.
I hit a vacant lot where an early 1900's house once stood. My finds weren't that great, but I was able to find the holy grail of tokens. It's the sacred "Heads / Tails" naked lady token!!! These beat the ChuckE Cheese tokens all to heck. :thumbsup:

Other finds were:
A rooster
A hem weight
An octagon shaped thingy w/3 holes. Any ideas? It looks pretty old.
A lead seal
A Munchkin shoehorn
A FORD something
Two telephone pole numbers
Yada, yada, yada.

Not even a wheat penny yet from this spot. :'(

Oh well, I'll try harder tomorrow.
Thanks for looking,
MM

I have only found one of those coins in my life. It was the same as yours. The rest of your finds aren't shabby either.

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment. Looks like you had a good experience.

Good hunt Doug.
Why does it say "Tails You Lose"

I need somebody to explain that to me.

MM, I found one of those tokens about 10 years ago while looking for a Yankee Cavalry Camp in a very remote area. Think they are CW period? LOL-Great Finds and am looking forward to seeing your article published in Western and Eastern Treasures Magazine within the next 6-12 months. Happy Hunting Bud!!!

Thanks VOL,
Yes, I do think it is a CW period token. It's a BABE Lincoln I think. :icon_scratch:

Welcome back. I almost sent the hounds out after you. :wink:

Nice stuff you found. I have one of those lucky coins, too, but don't know where it came from.
