I was searching an old home site the other day and turned over a 4 inch plug of dirt and found these 3 coins neatly stacked on top of each other. I cleaned them up but I wonder what they are made of? Any information from ya'll would be good. PS I thought I posted this the other day but maybe I hit the wrong key.

Thanks for the information. That means they are over 50 years old!! I was 50 once, 22 years ago They cleaned up nice with a little polish, well made back then.

SoOregon posted the link above and It must have been a different set than what I found. Good call I didn't catch it

Those tokens are pretty cool. I have found a couple of them while water hunting before. Congrats on some nice finds.
