Hey cjon455!! Neat Coins and ROI-TAN Cigar token!! CONGRATS!! Nice Yard!! GOOD LUCK and GOOD HUNTING!! VERDE!!
 
You have one heck of a treasure yard! Congrats!

If I found an IH in my yard I'd probably do a face plant!
 
right now if I just found a wheatie in my yard, I would faint! (of course the heat would factor in). awesome finds for sure

Thanks!!, these finds don't come easy though a lot of junk to sift through and a lot of iron tones to weed out I have a grocery bag full of junk that I dug out of holes throughout the yard

Thanks verde, I'm not sure about the cigar token though. I'm pretty sure this is a charm from a necklace
 
Great finds!! :thumbsup:
 
Info I have found says it is indeed a charm given away by the Roi-Tan tobacco company in the 1940's. Nice finds. Are you having to listen for these closely among the iron signals or do you find them once you clear the iron away?
 
Pretty neat! I could've used a "cool" charm today! :)
 
Nice job on the coins, like the charm too..

Well it's a little bit of both. Sometimes I get a high chirp amongst the iron grunts, other times I just get a wierd number like 63 for that indian, there was a nail in the hole with it too
 
Wow, My in laws house is built in the late 1800's and I never find anything older then a wheat's in the 40's there,... it was also a farm house, so its an old place with a big yard.

great finds.... I love anything older then 100 years,,, silver and gold are the exceptions !!

it took me a year to exhaust my dad's yard and parking strips. Every time i thought it was finished, another old coin or jewelry, rare collectible or relic would show up. Finally, the bounty ended, and nothing more has appeared in a couple of years. It's sad when it's all gone...or, at least, would truly seem to be all gone.

My avatar is one of the wonderful things I found there.
 
Cjon, your yard is going to ruin you. You are going to get so spoiled, you won't be happy doing other yard permissions! Lol, Haaaaaa, just kidding, my computer is still acting up, so I'm looking with my phone. Old 3 G droid. So I didn't get to see your pictures. I'm jealous of your yard,I wish my yard had half as much. I'm glad your new home is like that for you. GL and HH

Thanks Treblehunter! , I don't think my yard can take the place of getting permission. Too much work to pull the goods from my yard. I dig lots of trash and numbers I'd normally pass up at other places just because the #s don't come up the same in my yard

Good example of #s from my yard

V nickel 62
Indian. 64
Wheats 85

Not all targets gave wierd #s like that, about half were their Normal vdi range, just the occasional wierd ones
