Well I have not been out as much as I would like lately, but isn't that always the case! Here are some interesting finds from some of my recent hunts. The 1944P war nickel was in the same hole with a 1946 Jefferson nickel. The 1918 Buffalo and the wheat cent were from a very stingy park, so I was happy with those. The old train car which is about 4 inches long was from out in the woods. The IH had an 1899 date barely visible, that thing is just toasted! The church token was from another park. I am hoping to make it out this week and find me some shiny silver!

Thanks Del! I found a 25c cent token like this in August of 2009 at the same park. In speaking to some folks at the parish they thought they were from the 40's or 50's.

It looks like each hunt gave up a little somethin' nice for the goody bag!! thumbsup01 8)
Can't complain about that.
If I was to pick a favorite....I'm goin' with the token! :yes:
Is there any other writing on the other side? Or is it just blank?
Nice finds!

Thank you! The token has the same design on both sides.
