Wheat #756 is 1909VDB

[halfdime]

Barry and I went out to the silver farm today and ran the silver losing streak to three. The day wasn't a total loss, however; my first wheat was this 09VDB, about the fourth or fifth this season, and the second was a 35. In between, I found this coin of a 1918 Hudson; it appears to be brass, not the annoying aluminum, and has a copyright of 1969. Does anyone know who put these out? Also got better than a buck in clad.

There's a Hudson coin on ebay. Says it's a Franklin Mint coin.

They say everything happens in 3's. That must mean you're about to start your silver streak again. Congrats on the 09 VDB. Keep em coming!

Way back when gas stations were are friends Shell gave out aluminum tokens and when you collected them all you could sent off and get the full set in brass. Don't know if they are real brass or just a look alike will have to get my set out where ever I put it and see.

You are killing me.

Anyway, 1909 VDB...Not too impressed. I have already found two of them this year.
Ok, jk....I got lucky with two. They are not easy to find.

Keep the faith brother.

Nice going, gotta love those 1909 VDB coins. They really give a guy a thrill!

The Car coin is a Shell token. I found one like it this year close to a Shell station. Guess we both will have to keep hunting to fill our collection of Shell tokens. LOL

Congrats on the VDB.

I remember those tokens. I was playing with one on the dashboard of my dads brand new Plymouth Fury III and it fell into the air vent. He was really pissed, because every time he turned on the heat you could hear the token jingle around.

You could hear that damn thing the whole 20 or so odd years he owned the car. Right up until he drove it to the junk yard!

Nice finds,

Getting the 09 is nice. I know I like to see them. The v.d.b is just a bonus when it's there.
