Lunch break hunt nets MERC DIME, TRADE TOKEN, & Golden locket!

[oddcoins]

Hello!

I got out yesterday during my lunch break before it got too hot for me to detect. Not bad for such a short hunt! 1944-s Merc dime, 5c trade token, a gold-colored locket (just gold plated), and plenty of clad & pull tabs.

The token reads, M. McALPIN'S / CIGAR STORE / ALBANY, OR // GOOD FOR / 5c / IN TRADE . It is a pretty common trade token (rated as a R-2 in the book), but still fun to dig!

Thanks for looking!
Neil

Nice finds! I've been starting to think there was no more silver left in the ground in Oregon! I've yet to find a merc or any other silver but I'm new to the hobby!...Congrats on your finds! You must be good, You found more on your lunch hour than I do in 5 hours.

CONGRATS! btw, I want them all: your merc, your neat token, your gold pendant! They're very nice, & also after having very little time for detecting the past few months, yesterday I managed to sprain my knee right before two days of planned detecting activity. I'd even written "goof off" all over the calendar! Not to be, but knee is way better tonite so I'll be out there soon to dig me own pretty heart pendant. Andi

Dang!! Just how long is your lunch break anyway I must be doing something wrong! If I could find that much stuff on my lunch break I would have to be gone long enough to file a missing person report!! Great finds! Keep a diggi' and good luck! Now go clock back in!! LOL!!
