Got a solid 94 on the Deus2 THINKING SILVER !

[Oldrvrrat57]

Went on a short hunt yesterday to a site I've hit several times over the years and seem to pull out at least 1 or 2 coins, got a good solid 94 on my D2 and thinking this has to be a seated or Barber quarter but no it turned out to be a Civil War token that's pretty bad shape, was able to make out the eagle purched on a cannon and I think it says America on the back side. Found one like it in my search . Wish it had been in better shape but again don't find many of these in my area.

Great finds !

Looks like fire damage - it's up to you but if it's a Silver coin I'd put it in a Electrolysis Bath.
I found a unrecognizable Morgan Dollar last year that was in a house fire.
All that was visible was the date, several letters and a few stars.
It cleaned up real well in Electrolysis - at least it looks like Silver now.
Good Luck !

It's not silver, the ones I've found on line are brass, just thought it was strange to be reading so high on the D2

Those tokens always ring up high , Congratz

For me Large Cents and Silver Quarters come in the on the same target ID numbers on the E-Trac, Deus 1 & 2.
So it seems that most or all metal detectors target ID's are determined by thickness and diameter - not the composition of the metal.
