Hey guys. Today I hunted a small park located in a northern suburb of Chicago. I was able to cross some finds off my bucket list including a barber dime, indian head penny, and a token. After doing some research I determined that the token was to a vintage peep show joint called bare assets...
Went to a old house site today and dug up a few stuf :thumbsup:f... Here are the two best finds of today. :happysmiley:
Still a bit dirty, but this is the Newfoundland token. :headbang: It has "George VI" on it. It's my first token by the way, and I have no idea what it truly is. ???
I...
Found this token/souvenir coin while detecting an old football field. I have tried to find something like it on Google, but I have had no luck. Does anyone know who put out this token? It is heavy (feels like a silver dollar) and has a reeded edge. It is bright gold in color and about 1 1/2...
Found this token at my favorite spot today, here in Southern California.
There is not much at all if any info online on this exact token. Only 1-2 pics online.

back: The brunswick Balke Collender CO (Picture of a billiards table)
I would like to know the history...
Alright, once again I beg the experts for advice. I checked the catalog don linked too last time on tokens, I checked ebay (yes one sold there but that was mine and I was trying to establish value. Before that none to be found). Can someone help me find out what this AA coin is and possibly a...
This is my very first post to the forum so, Hello everyone!
So, I found these tokens today. I am not sure what they are for, but there is a name on them "W.C. Harper" and also the town where I found them in "Port Republic, VA" (my backyard). On the back is a "10" on two of the tokens and a...

Wind, cold and a little afternoon sun made this one of my coldest hunts in Baltimore, but I was dressed for the weather and managed to "hang in there". Part way through the day, one of our Club member's, John, came by and we had some time to compare notes on the day and our finds. Spring's...
Vintage 'Odd Fellows' medalllion?? Please help identifying
I had an enjoyable time yesterday hunting with GaRebel1861 at an old home site and dug this little guy up. Did a bit of research and I think it's an 'Odd Fellows' medallion of some sort. On the back is engraved THE WHITEHEAD HOAG CO...
Hey, guys! It's been a while since I've posted here on TreasureNet and when a friend of mine asked me for help in identifying a coin she had, I told her that I knew exactly the place to go to with all of the treasure enthusiasts and collectors on this site. I've been trying to do my own research...
I was out doing some metal detecting in Central Florida and I came across what I though was a washer took it home and hooked it up to my homemade electrolysis and ended up being my FIRST TOKEN Wooooohooooo! It reads as follows:

Had a really nice find with my F2 today! I dug up an old coal scrip issued by the Consolidation Coal Company Inc for their coal camp in Dunham, Kentucky! Dunham was set up on June 24th, 1913 and was only a small community, absent from most maps. It was about 10 miles northeast of Whitesburg, KY...
Where do I begin? I found this weird CPG CO "token/coin?" in Essex County, Massachusetts yesterday. Actually it appears to be two tokens/coins stuck together. The thought of separating them is absolutely terrifying to me so I haven't tried anything yet. Could it be that the fronts of both coins...
Not much yesterday evening...Found one 42 wheat and my second Palmolive-Peet token/check for laundry soap cakes. This is the 2nd one I've found but this one is in much better condition. The yard I wanted to hunt was still unavailable because I can't ever find anyone at home.A really nice couple...
Went back to the mega playground today and it was well worth the trip! :treasurechest: Had some rain while I was hunting and had to quit once. Went back after the rain subsided and got my first whistle! And two new records for coin counts in one hunt 19 dimes and 17 nickels! 8-)The ring read @...
Help? identifying Token " The T.I.G.H." embossed with a bottle, dug from Del. River
Hey Friends,
I dug this from some dredge spoils on the bank of Delaware River (near Bristol).
So far, THE most exciting thing I've ever dug. It rang loud on the machine (copper\tin) & I thought it was a lead...
Hey everyone, I'm new to Treasure Net but not new to finding treasure :). Today I found a sweet Civil War token with my Garrett Ace 350. On one side it says "The federal union it must and shall be preserved" and on the other side it says "Army and Navy". It was definitely exciting digging this...
Long before I got my metal detector I was walking in my grandparents woods and noticed a broken rusty car. Inside that car were 5 califorinia gold coins I think 3 were tokens and 1 was real the other one was dropped I can not go and metal detect the dropped one because the place is 10 hours by...
This coin(or token) my mom had and wasn't sure what it was. I have no clue what it could be seeing as its the same thing on both sides of the coin. Any information on this coin would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks! (Pictures below)

Just out of the ground today. I have many questions about this little guy. Is it old or rare? Is it supposed to have a hole? Was it plugged like some coins I have seen or was it supposed to look like this? Does anybody know? I sincerely appreciate your help.
I'm very new to metal detecting and just did my first beach yesterday. It was a small swimming pond that had been dug to build an interstate. I didn't think it was too old but found a dateless buffalo nickel and a 5 peso mexican coin from 1980 which was weird because I live in a northeastern...
I don't know if this is a coin or a token in the first photo, you can see the back in the third photograph. The item in the fourth and fifth photo, I have no idea what it may be from.
If you have any info on any of the items I sure would appreciate it! Thanks! Cindy
