I discovered a new median strip on Google Maps a few days ago. Yesterday I drove to this new place and was surprised to find most of the median had bull dozers and backhoes go through and turn over the dirt!
I started my hunt on the east end, just after turning on my machine I looked down and saw a half dollar size green disc laying on top of the dirt. I swept my coil over it and got no sound at all. Reaching down to pick it up I discovered that it turns out to be a Cal-Neva saloon token from Reno Nevada, it's made out of plastic! ...It still might be a good find?
The next four hours through the median on two sweeps produced 33 coins, 4 metal tokens, and one wheat penny. A military rank insignia pin on unknown origin was also dug. It was a little disappointing, but it was still great getting out between all these rain storms blowing through the bay area..
