Got out early & hit some places, got a bunch of clad, etc. These 2 big fat coins sure gave me a start. The left one is a mexican coin from 1956, cincuenta centavos or 50 cents I believe. Someone correct me if wrong. Sure thought I had a silver dollar at first !
The other token is a Recovery token. I know these are not great shakes compared to many other old ones posted here but I thought some would like to see a common everyday type dig :) Steve in so az
