Nice banner coop, its just a matter of time for me. I'm gonna find me a worn beat down crappy gold coin and get me a banner someday. No, really, I am gonna do it.

Thanks, I dig all the time still, just dont post as much, here are my finds from the hunt a day or 2 before the bust half minus a few Indians. View attachment 1041321

coop VERY good hunt and it's striking, you found five silver, three denominations, and the most unusual by far, you got FIVE TYPES. If there were such a thing as banner hunts, this would be one.

Excellent finds and fantastic condition. We all need spots like this to detect. The book mentioned on the 1st page, fuld? Can anybody give the full title and author? I do all the inter-library loans I can for books like these.

Apologies, I should've fully cited my source. It's called A GUIDE TO CIVIL WAR STORE CARD TOKENS by George & Melvin Fuld. The edition I have is 1962 and looks like this...





I *think* it's out of print, but I may be wrong about that. However, copies turn up and are not expensive, compared to some relic books... maybe $10-20 or so?

Thanks for the info. I like to try and read as many books as I can. Now if I could just remember a small part of everything I read.

Congrats on your Banner nomination for a remarkable coin. Last year I found a 1836 capped and
I can truly say my coin was only half as good as yours
