I got a new permission today and a first happen to me today where the property owner brought his metal detector out & started metal detecting with me. After about a half hour the property owner quit detecting and went back into his house. There wasn't too much to be found but I did find a Tootsie Toy MG Roadster coupe sports car. A RFD padlock and a Sunoco car coin aluminum token. I also found a miscellaneous pile of junk. Thanks for looking.

Cool finds !

I've found several of the Sunoco Tokens with different types of old cars on them.
There were 25 different varieties produced by the Franklin Mint in 1969.
They were given out as a promotion at Sunoco gas stations.
Shell gas stations also gave out similar styled Tokens during the same time period.

I still have my collection of the Sunoco car coin tokens. Whenever my dad would go to Sunoco for gas he would give me the token for my game board. Never did get to complete the board.
