My First Post

Bomgoat · Apr 30, 2009

I have had my Ace 250 for a week now so I have decided to make my first post. I bought the Ace 250 from a guy at work who didn't want it anymore for 100 bones. He says he only put about 6 hours on the machine and I believe him it looks brand new. Anyway I am posting pics of my more interesting finds. As far as coins go I have only found three Wheat's so far, 41D, 41S and a 42, a 64 Rosie and a 1974 Kenedy Half, plus I have found about $5.58 in clad. I also thought the toy car and the 30's makeup tin lid were pretty neat. If anyone can get me some more info on the 1924 American Legion Badge I would greatly appreciate it as I haven't been able to find any info on it. I would also like to say that this is a great forum and it has helped me tremendously in getting used to my 250, plus I hope to one day be as good a treasure hunter as most of you on this board are.... Thanks for lookin and take care.

I located a badge from the American Legion that was dated 1941 and is punched in the shape of Indiana. I did some research at our local post and they said that these were given out to all the delegates of the convention. I hope that helps out. Nice find BTW...
