Had a short hunt today and found a morgan dollar only one inch deep but hit by a plow. Also a old palmolive token 4" deep. Hope everyone had a good day

Great finds! I never realized store coupons passed as coinage at one time! That has to be a great collectible. Good pix!

Yes, as a matter of fact during the civil war, there were many store coupons on tokens. Ebay regularly sells these and they are very much in demand these days. They are a collectable that is going up in value quite significantly as newer collectors are getting into the market. Check out this link for more info.
