Below are some pics of the last 3 plus months of finds. All were found at local parks with the exception of a couple sterling pcs of jewelry that I found at a beach.

My favorite find was this Love Token I already posted...

I found a 1 Troy Ounce of .999 fine silver too. It was just under the grass and gave me a super high signal.

You were busy, Jared! Super group of finds! What is that piece of silver on the date of the 1873?

That is a seated dime Love Token. I posted it alone a month or two ago. One of my best and rarest finds I've ever made.

Nice pile of keepers. Don't recall ever seeing a Scrooge silver posted before. Those two big coppers have a great patina.

Yes! I think it is almost like a very small silver rivet that attached the pin to the coin/token that must of broke and then it fell to the ground for me to find many many years later.

Amazing assortment you got there! I've only ever found 1 skeleton key and it looks like you pop 'em up like memorial cents!

Solid set of hunts Jared, and yeah, that love token is bad a?&! Those Vicky Canadian LC's are almost always 1859s. They minted sooooo many of them, but being made of bronze usually stand the test of time in the ground quite well. Congrats!

Thanks John! I think I have 3 1859 LC's and my youngest son has one as well. And the Love Token is one of my favorite finds that I have ever made...
