Got out with Todd to look for some potential sites.we found a couple sites and they were hammered pretty good.snuck out a couple keepers but we really had to work for our finds today.
a mangled shoe buckle frame ,a broken tombac button,a flattie button,a busted up bridle rosette,a 2 buffalo nickel coin spill and a 1863 patriotic civil war token and a vintage Coke bottle made in Providence R.I.
- "PAT. D 105529" (called the "D-Patent Cokes") were produced from 1938 to 1951.
Way to go Dave, you know...one of these days I'm going to find a CW token. :envious: Great day to be out!
Awesome finds HMN! Glad to see you're still hard at it.
Great finds once again. That Civil War Token has to be the find of the day.
Awesome Civil War Token, Very Nice!
Congratulations on the Civil War token they are always a significant find so much history encased in a small item! :congrats:
That's an amazing civil war token you have there. Looks to be in. Really nice shape as well. Congrats!
Great finds! Was the CW token used as currency like a store card or was it more of a "support the troops" kind of thing?
Nice Dave! good to see you guys are able to still get out
thanks! I believe there was a shortage of coinage during this time so,small buisness's had their own coinage minted hence the CW store tokens and patriotic themed tokens in place of Indian heads.someone correct me if I'm wrongQuote:
