Hi all,
Gary, my hunting partner and I got out to some old log cabin sites last week. Wow, Gary smoked me with his token finds and he also came up with a Canadian fish scale.

His finds are as follows, a 1891 Canadian Fish Scale, a 1853 half dime, a 1877 Seated Quarter, three Indian Head pennies 1897, 1898, & 1907. He also founda One Penny Token with Dum Tacet Clamat on the face, from what I could find out it is from 1890. He also found a 1933 Chicago Worlds Fair Token, with A Century of Progress on it. He also found a Aerobatic Pilot Belt buckle and a Badge with 42nd Annual Session Supreme Council, Columbus, June 25-30, 1929.

I found some good finds also. I found a 1916 one Franc, a 1913 Buffalo nickel, two Indian Head pennies 1890 & 1907, three Mercury dimes 1934, 1942, 1944, a Roosevelt dime 1964 and a small rouge case and two wheaties.

Hope you all had a good week of hunting, I can't wait till they start working the fields around here.

HH, Ringfinder

Nice going!
Yeah, silver is always good to find,
but as is obvious here, some of those tokens
and buttons are really unique!

Way to go!
 
I can't see or link to your pictures, but it sounds like some realy cool finds.
 
Wow, Ringfinder, those are some great finds there.
Congrats to you and Gary on a terrific hunt.

I'm really liking that 1 Franc coin!! The seateds and fishscale are great too. :thumbsup:

Denny,
You always make me proud to live in Ohio. :wink: ;D You guys always find some great stuff. Just a seated quarter, ho hum. :D I think if you still were hunting with the ACE250 you might be finding as much good stuff as Gary. ;D :D ;D

That is a different 1933 World's Fair token. I found one but it had the skybridge on it and was elongated.

Man, I wish I was retired. I got at least 10 to go.....

tectin at it's finest right there !!! sweeeeeeeet..... :o :o ;D ;D
 
GREAT stuff! That pilot's buckle is wonderful :thumbsup:

My grandmother's cousin was in WWI and brought back some Francs just like the one you found.
Must have been a popular thing to do.

Take care,

Thanks Watercolor, that is the second one that has been found at that site, Gary found one. Think you are right about WW I. I can't find anything out about the belt buckle, but I'm still looking.

LOL, that's a good one Bob, I always have the ACE 250 with me, it's kinda a part of my body.

I am trying to learn how to use my new Fisher F75, cause I hope to be hunting in Va. for a CW hunt this fall and need to use this detector at the site. I hear there is lots and lots of iron in the soil.

By the way, since your not retired and Gary and I are we could come over to eastern Ohio and helpy you dig some of your sites, while your working, LOL Hey what are friends for. LOL< LOL

Thanks for everyones replies,
