Token/Half-Penny/Silver...I'm back!!!!

This is the first time I've been able to hunt since April/May. It went from beautiful spring, able to hunt weather to hot, tick infested, chigger ridden, mosquito overrun, headphones sliding off ears weather in no time. And finally, all the mosquitos are gone, haven't seen a tick/chigger for a couple of weeks, had our first cold snap, the leaves fell, and now I CAN HUNT AGAIN!!!!! I have been watching the forum for months now, envious of everyone able to hunt. I'm not one of those guys that has to post on everyone's finds, but I have been watching. I'm not experienced enough to join in most of the discussions, but I have "loved" reading. And, dem boards, ancient coin, explosive cannonballs at school (got some non-treasure hunters reading all those and they love it!!!) PRICELESS!! I am very jealous of and have wished that I could have found each and every one of the BANNER finds that have been posted (and a few which still have not....I.P.'s token, H.B.'s quill holder and T.K.'s spoon mold....C'MON already...Awesome) Personally, I think that T-NET should have a never-ending banner that post everyone's finds...just keep it scrolling like the stores on ebay.........hey I'm just tryin to create some more jobs for everyone.....
Anyway, before I turn this into my "blog" ......my meager 45 min. 'test' hunt finds:
DSC00543.webp find pile...
DSC00544.webp finally, some silver...
DSC00550.webp
DSC00549.webp
DSC00545.webp Jamaican half penny 1958
DSC00546.webp Red Front token?....any ideas?
DSC00552.webp backside (has "X" marks)
DSC00551.webp close-up...
DSC00548.webp 1934 wheatie

I also dug 16 memorials...15 stuck side by side in the same hole and one a foot away....funny how 15 pennies still rang up as ONE penny....Anyway, I'm glad to be back with everyone....every dirty-kneed, sore-backed, grimy fingernailed one of you...............(US!!!!!!!!)

Thanks Tim, believe it or not, the silver was right on top of the ground...I scooted some leaves with my foot and saw it. I thought it was a crushed aluminum lid at first. You may be able to see the 'scuf' mark right in front of the nose...did that with my foot. I never heard the X-70 go off like that before and i didn't believe it...solid 46...
