Very cool, Bigrig
I found a token about like that, same company, but a little different design, back when I first started detecting.
I agree, Silver is nice, but I like to find things that make me learn a little history too...
Good luck & Happy hunting~

Very nice finds BR! Any numbers or patents or company names on that compact you found? Nice token, any idea of the metal it's made of, aluminium? I really enjoy finding tokens, found a rare token yesterday from a long gone brewerie. Will post pics later. HH, Mike

Good Job Bigrig!!
What do you this the copper lids are? possibly a snuff can? Tokens are great, wounder how many differant Soap Tokens there were?........

Really cool token, those are fun to find. Good luck with your club hunt. We had our club hunt a week ago and it was a good time. We had about 25 hunters. There were 3 different types of hunts, a main hunt with silver coins. Next was a cache hunt, silver dimes inside a film cannister and buried about 2 or 3 inches. and the last one you had to find tokens for prizes. They gave away 2 metal detectors. I did ok with 170 silver coins total, one 44 walking liberty, a franklin half and 2 barber quarters, 14 silver quarters, and 1 barber dime, and 7 mercs. The rest were silver dimes. I found 14 of the cache's. Good luck on your hunt.

Hey Bigrig, I have one of those that I found a while back, 'cept mine is for Palmolive.

Hey Bigrig, nice finds. Love the token. I believe your case is a ladies powder compact. I have found a few that are similar. They were popular from the late 1800's up. It's hard to date them, but you probably have an idea from the other items you have found around there. Congrats..Lance

Cool finds!!

Cool token BigRig. Not one you see everyday. That compact is nice. Did you put a little character on it with your digger. I don't know about you guys but my grounds have been so hard this summer. It sucks because stuff get scratched and broke more often.

Keep up the search

Yup real nice case there BigRig, It doesnt look like a compact case but more like a watch case. Hmmmm? Maybe a snuff case? Or maybe a Pill Case? Intersting. HH

 

[bigrig40]

it is a compact case.any idea on value of the token?

peace,bigrig
