Private yard hunt...silver, token, fob and stuff.

Dan(NM) · Jul 18, 2017

I hit a private yard today and had fun hunt, some cool stuff came to light today. The token is a semi rare type as the NM Token Book doesn't have a picture of it

I like silver, but tokens are always a treat. I haven't done any research on the fob yet, pretty cool looking. The shell casing is one of the largest I've ever dug in a yard, 50 cal. maybe the husband was in the military and brought it for me to find. It's been a while since I've been able to get out, sold off most of my gear except my CTX, the more I use it the more I think I'll hang on to it. Thanks for looking.

Dan, great saves!of course who doesn't love Mercs, but your quatrefoil token is awesome! I found the almost identical token but it was for a local 1930's grocer and said "GOOD FOR 1 PINT MILK"...that's the first token like that in that pattern I've seen since posting mine a while back...the detecting God's were with you! Hang onto that CTX...Ddf

Thanks ddf, I had hunted this house before 10 years earlier, but gave up after the front, side and back didn't produce, all this came from the same small area that I didn't hunt years ago, glad I went back. so far this token is the only one know to exist, I'm stoked. The CTX perform great in this spot, lots of iron debris.
