I was at the railway tracks with my new bounty hunter land ranger pro and searched where I found a 1930-40 baby carriage wheel at the tracks. I got a quarter signal. I pulled out this flat circle that I thought was trash in till I took a closer look. I saw faint words on it so I kept it and looked at it closer at home. It says "PARAMOUNT STAR" under that "IN" under that "MIDNIGHT CLUB". On the back is a head with "CLIVE BROOK" in small letters to the right. I searched online and it's a collectable token with the famous silent film actor who acted in the 1920's. In 1928-29 he started acting in sound films. The token was made in the 1930's. Wow! So cool! I never thought about it before... the silent shows were not that long ago really!!! Too bad it's so squished.
I also found a license plate made in 1976 that is purple and yellow, a broken truck, a key, and $1.37! Not too bad! Thanks for looking!

Congrats on some nice finds. I sure am glad you did not use the word "old" to describe your 1976 license plate. That would make me ancient !

Haha! Well its older... not old! Too bad it wasnt from the early 1900's... that would be awesome to find!!! Its still cool though, its a different color and layout then the current ones we have.

Thanks! I try. The thing I'm worried about is with the new detector that will tell me what I'm digging up is that I'll be tempted to ignore the trash signals and miss stuff.
Also, those stickers you sell... do they peel off nicely if you decide you don't want it on anymore? (Do they leave gross sticky marks)
