Haven't posted much lately, been kind of lazy. These are some of my finds for the past couple of weeks...

Found the 43 quarter in a curb strip yesterday and found the four dimes today. One in a lawn with a few wheat pennies and three in a curb strip.

I also found the Jacksonville Traction Co. token in the same curb strip. It has a cross in the middle. It was from when Jacksonville had trollies. A token web sight rates it as rare, but it's not worth much.

The two buffalo nickles and war nickles I found in a park near my house.

The 947 badge states, "Wear This Badge In Sight" on top and "H.S.D. Plant" underneath. I found this last week in a woods that had a lot of other finds I have posted. Odds are it is circa 1915 or thereabout. Based on other finds from that site.

Then there is an Old Hickory button that I think came off a slicker. Found a couple of other similar buttons, one with trains on it and the other with stars, but no writing on them.

I also found a bunch of clad and wheat pennies. Not pictured.

I'd say you done quite well. Congrats on all the silver and Buffs. The tokens are a sweet save also. Good luck Mark
 
That Jacksonville token is pretty neat! I wish our currency would return to the its heyday in terms of design. Most of the current coinage is pretty boring...
