Morning hunt gets me an Indian and buffalo

[fmrUSMC_0844]

I hit a house this morning with a torn up yard. managed to do pretty well considering how small the yard was. The house is 120 years old. Pulled a 1907 Indian Head, a Buffalo Nickel but the only part of the date I can see is a 5 at the end of the date and a mintmark I cant tell what it is, a chinese coin im guessing. If anyone has info on that Id appreciate it, a transit token and a trade token from the Labor Bar and a little gun. Thanks for looking!!!

It is a Chinese Cash Coin, most likely from the Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty.
Here is a link that you can identify exact type on.

That's a squirt gun from before they made them of plastic. It had a little red rubber bulb that attached to the bottom where the double lip is. I have found a lot of these over the years. Nice finds, and that token could be worth some nice money. Good job. Niffler

Im hoping there token is worth something. I will have to check the book on it.
Yep that picture is from national geographic. I thought it was a good one.

So that little gun is a squirt gun. I had no idea what it was. Thanks for that information!

Good finds Utah neighbor,
I checked the book your token is R9 4-7 known
$20-$35. The book is just a guide though. I,ve seen $10.00 tokens
go for $75 to $90
