TYrade tokens are cool. Shows you how industrious our forefathers were. Try it now and the gov't would probably come down on you for trying to undermine their currency...cause the gov't makes money on minting coins, and they make the laws......hhhhmmmm..... :thinkingabout:

wow, lots of old tokens being found lately. Makes me sad I haven't found any this year. :angry:

Congrats on your finds!

another nice token Dave... you are on a roll.

Hopefully we can get out again towards the end of the week. I know we have a good chunk of detecting time left this year, but with the first frost yesterday... kind of gets a person realizing that the end to the season is coming. :crying02:

I'm hoping to get out a little this evening after work.... hoping.

Dave, your're gonna get them collectors into metal detecting with those kind of results lol After all, where else can you get items that were once common and are now scarce?? We get a lot of colonial coins that I could never afford to buy. That's one reason I love detecting. :yes:
