    Oct 9th finds

    Today i got a first for me. I have been hunting the fair grounds that i already covered with my DFX,V3i and E-Trac.

    The CTX3030 seems to be doing well for me as i'm also going slower. Today i got only .37 in clad but i also got my 30th silver (tying last year) a 1943 walker. I also got something i couldn't identify till i got home. After toothbrushing it and coating it with olive oil i can now say it's an 1863 civil war token. It has the word Union above the head on the front and &quotUR CARD on the back.
