"I hope you find something really good"

[jbrow]

Hunted a 1905 home today. Sat and talked with the homeowner on the porch for quite a while before the hunt. It was a good day. I Pulled a few wheat, a 1920 Canadien penny, a rosie and then showed her my finds. She was really surprised at what I found. Before I was going to hit the curb strip, she said " I hope you find something really good. " then 2 minutes later I found the token! I've never seen a plated patriotic token before?

Interesting Token.
Any idea on date???
I am guessing early 20th C based on the coins found.

It's a civil war era patriotic token. This home was built on the property that once belonged to the 1859 home that stood in front of it

Looks like a bezel around that CW token...congrats on it, the Rosie and the rest!

I’m cursed. I find more gold rings per wheat than I do silver coins. I’m probably 50 wheats to a silver.

That's not a bad curse to have. I haven't found gold in over a year and a half!

Thanks! It's all the coin, no bezel, the picture makes it look deceiving.

Hahahaha. Somehow Tapatalk put this reply in your thread. It was actually supposed to go in the wheats per silver post. But you’re right, it is a good curse

A fantastic find Jeremy in the Civil War Token. It is in pretty nice shape considering its age. Congrats on the Token, the Rosie and all the rest. Trapper
