1925 house permission, pounded this one hard this morning, still targets waiting for me....
I was given an open invite "anytime", so that's cool.

Best find was a $10 bill!:headbang:

Then I found this cap thingy, never heard of "Electreat" before, next target was this caster, roller thingy....ok, but wait.

Turns out, back in the day, quacky medical devices were all the rage....
This was a personal electro therapy device, I don't know where the business part is, but the cap and roller are certainly related.

Lots of clad, only one wheat....then a monster find for me...
Thomas Edison, Lee County Chamber of Commerce advertising token, super freakin rare....
Historical society here tells me they were made just after he died, but only a hundred were made
.....AWESOME!

I found my first Walker this week, with some of his buddies. Thought I'd never get one because I generally hunt really old sites.
 

Seriously dude...excellent finds! The token is very cool.

And another Walker. You guys posting Walkers all the time drives me crazy lol. I'm really hoping this is my year to find one.
 

as much as you find Dave your retirement date should be getting closre
 

Congratualtions on the nice silver and token find! :occasion14:
 

Nice recoveries. As for the roller thingy, my parents used to hang wallpaper. Your find strongly reminds me of the roller tool they used to flush the seams between two pieces.
 

Congrats on a great day. Great to have open permission. Love the Edison token. My first Walker is still in the ground somewhere!
 

love the token, this one is pretty cool too. I too and walker shy but one never knows. your's is a beautiful thing, just wish it was me posting it;
 

But you're making the solo silver of the day count bruddah! Nice Walker Dave
