Hey everyone,
Here are some of my recent finds from the last few hunts. I ended up finding 8 silver coins, 2 sterling silver rings, wheat pennies, and a really cool Ford So-Called Dollar/token. The Ford token is called a “Ford Dollar” issued in conjunction with the World’s Fair “Century of Progress Exposition” 1933-1934 in Chicago. (1903-1933 – Thirty Years of Progress). http://www.so-calleddollars.com/Events/Century_of_Progress.html

These finds brings me to 35 silver coins and 5 pieces of sterling for the year.

Jason

The "UN SOL DE ORO" token translates to "A SUN OF GOLD". Maybe you already knew that. 'Figured I'd throw that out there.

Nice group of goodies!
 
Before you get ready to dump your year's of silver to the refiners for smelting, .... do me a favor and give me a head's up notice. So that I can sell mine FIRST. Because the minute you sell, there will be a world-wide glut of silver, sinking the market rate. thanx ! :laughing:

Why do you think silver prices are so low.
 
Beautiful! You always find some cool stuff! I like that one heavy silver ring you got there Jam...sort of cyryllic script on it...? I bet that Ford token is worth some money...
 
Very cool looking Ford Token. Congrats on the great mix of coins.
Thanks!

Nice saves, being a Ford man, I like that old Ford token!

Hey,I just found one of those Peru coins too, I just scrapped it. It was really corroded.
Thanks! I think the Peru coin was a token or something at first.

Nice job again Jason. Looks like your on your way to another good year of metal detecting.
HH everyone

Thanks! There are a few of the Ford tokens on ebay and looks like they go for $10-20. Yeah, some type of Cyrillic script but haven't figured out exactly what kind yet.
