Default Woods Hunt And Land Hunt Found Some Nice Vintage Objects

>

My wife called me at work to tell me that she was picking up my daughter from school, which meant I have detecting time. I packed up my AT Pro and headed to a spot in the woods I have been meaning to hunt for the last couple of weeks. I then headed to a spot which I was hoping would give up a silver coin, and it did!



I got one of those signals, with the VDI bouncing around the 40's and 80's. What a surprise....an old baby spoon. It looks like it was silver plated at one time, but the elements managed to remove most of that plating.



Here's a couple of silver quarters which I managed to get along with the bottom of an old vintage shaving stick dating back to the 1920's.



Here's my favorite find from tonight. An old GM Token from 1941. I will have to research it as it is a very unique find. below are some vehicles which GM built in 1941.
