Awesome. Because of my post about this token below, my eye catches your similar token. Do you have closer pics?
Hi chequer - I have found other tokens and I must say that the message on this one is so obscene that I'd be embarrassed to post it. Moderators would quickly remove I'm sure. Yours is excellent by the way -

That's quite a collection of finds for only a dozen times out. You must have some great places to go. I especially like the Walker. That's on my "wouldn't it be awesome to find" list. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks LM. My spots are places hard-hit by hunters over the years. I seek out the trashy areas, that's where the good stuff hides - these spots are common city and county parks, old fairgrounds etc, and the like.

Hello Chriscoinz, I've saved the clad up for two years now, and have a Ball jar full. I've tumbled it over time and will take to my credit union and run through the coin counter. I plan on putting the cash back into md'ing equipment. Looking into the new Minelab detector harness, takes all the weight off the swinging arm.

Only once, when I detected a school that I didn't realize was privately owned, and was asked to leave. Otherwise, never any problems in almost seven years now. I hit many city and county parks, great, as long as I fill the holes. Many times I knock on doors to hunt private yards. My "ok" success rate with private property is about 80% believe it or not.

Those are awesome finds! I was recently in Michigan for a family emegency but found some time to detect while I was there. I will post the finds soon. I know you are in MI so you will enjoy I hope. Pics will be up in a day or two. Also, since you are living in Michigan I would like to see you detect these 2 properties when the snow clears. It is family so permission is easy. Late 1800's farm. Let me know and if you ever make it to Arizona we are finding gold. (Cant quit the day job though) LOL

Yuma, I'm going to be in Tucson around the holidays. Any chance there is anything worth hunting for in that part of the state? I don't know much about where you might be finding gold, but I'm guessing more to the west towards CA?
