South Georgia school yard gives up more coins and found another HUGE token

wlb42 · Jan 21, 2015

Only 3rd time out for 2015.....but another nice sunny day in the low 70's. Found 21 quarters, 10 dimes & 22 cents, all clad, no silver but $6.47 in gas money made it worth the trip.....However I did find an interesting, very large aluminum token.

Nice coin hunt! I think the South Ga schools here got wiped out in the 80's. Found 1 silver and 1 IH so far.

That is a LOT of targets! I love tokens so that would have excited me.

Cugnot invented the first self-propelled vehicle in the late 1700's. An automobile, powered by steam, intended for the use of the French army. Interesting token.

You had a great day and I always like finding tokens. I was down in Tifton the other day and saw someone walking with what looked like a White's metal detector and wish I could have had time to stop and introduce myself, but was bringing mama home from the doctor and she wasn't feeling well. He was on his way to a dig because he had a pouch and digging tools with him. GL & HH.
