I went today to a place called keokee about 30 minutes from where i live... Keokee has been a huge coal producing area since the 1800's , i was searching near an old home that was built around 1904-1905 .. I found 3 dimes and 10 pennies.. One penny was a 1948 Wheatie
,, then i dug up this disc about the size of half dollar not knowing what it was... it was covered in dirt and rust, grim, u name it.. I couldnt tell anything about it , i could just tell it was aluminum by the weight, threw it in my sack and went on... When i got home and started cleaning everything up i realized it was a piece of Coal Scrip when the dirt started coming out of the 5 holes... I was bouncing up and down at that point, realizing what i found
. I put it in my electrolysis machine for about 25-30 minutes and it came out 10x cleaner.. You can actually see KeokeeVA on the coin.. I know several collectors of coal scrip in the area that pays top dollar for them.. 100-200$ for 1 script.. slowly paying off that ace 250 and Garrett pin-pointer.
Here some Pics .. GL an HH guys
