congrats on some more silver and i like the token!
 

Congrats on some nice finds! I went out today with my dad and I got 7 wheaties and an 1899 indian head penny, no silver :-( I was still a successful hunt though! It helped to prove there are still lots of things to find at a place we thought might be drying up.
 

Regular park indeed!
Nice hunt!
 

Great hunt again! :thumbsup:
 

Excellent finds & I like your new avatar ..Is that you holding the sturgeon??

AWESOME finds buddy!!! :icon_pirat:
 

Nice hunt fellas

The 'cross' image is the Saint Benedict Medal, a Catholic sacramental medal containing symbols and text related to the life of Saint Benedict of Nursia. In use since at least the seventeenth century, it is used to ward off spiritual and physical dangers, especially those related to witchcraft, poison, and temptation. Sometimes carried as part of the rosary, it is also found individually. (per Wiki)

On the side of the 'cross' you are showing contains the letters C S S M L - N D S M D, initials words meaning "May the holy cross be my light! May the dragon never be my overlord!").Surrounding the back of the medal are the letters V R S N S M V - S M Q L I V B, that signify "Begone Satan! Never tempt me with your vanities! What you offer me is evil. Drink the poison yourself!") and finally, located at the top is the word PAX which means "peace". (more Wiki)

Great finds!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks for the pic, Master Senior!

DP Bob found some of those Gus pig tokens at a private yard hunt in '08, and I picked one up at a park in Chicago the same year. Did a little search and came up with this matchbook that I think shows Gus and says "Steer for Gus" He reminds me of Dirtfish Dave a little.
