Silver,Buffalo & Vote For Peter M. Hoffman For Coroner Token

Went out to the Picnic Grove for an hour.
I was in the open field this time.. It was getting hot in the sun.
First target was a deep 1935S Buffalo Nickel. ( I nicked the leg ...oops )
Pulled up about 6 pull tabs and then got the 1959 D Rosie at 4 inches

I then pulled up a Pin that said 1922 State of Illinois with some numbers.. While washing it it disintegrated into 6 pieces.
UPDATE:
Turns out that is was a 1922 State of Illinois Chauffeurs Badge....here a picture if it was whole.


Last target was a Vote For Peter M. Hoffman " Special Privileges To None Equal Rights To All " token

Great finds Bob. :thumbup Did you know that Peter M. Hoffman also ran for Cook County Sheriff in 1922 and was elected. He ended being charged with contempt of court and served 30 days in his OWN jail while still holding office. I found his, "Vote For Sheriff token a few months ago. This guy liked the tokens thats for sure!
