I have been off of work for the last week. Between weather and other commitments, I was only able to hunt a few times.
I managed to con(vince) TNetter Bladerunner2019 to take me on a hunt. I was rewarded with a buffalo nickel and the fellowship associated with hunting with other like minded people. Thanks Bill!
I slipped out with Smittyman on Tuesday. He has lots of permissions and loves to drive other people around in his new truck! I found this token on the hunt. It's from 1967, Fort Wainwright in Alaska. The centennial purchase of Alaska is celebrated, and the token is good for a "haircut".
On Thursday Smittyman located us a place in the country to hunt. Unfortunately, we were only able to hunt it for 30 minutes. We will return, as it yielded a buffalo, IHC, presidential token and parasol part... in quick succession.
Whilst nobody else was looking, I managed to sneak over the hill and hunt one of my many "secret honey holes". I only have to dig one or two holes, and something amazing WILL pop out. I got a signal in the 70s on the Deus... and it sounded deep. It was in the trash in the bushes of an old home site. Luckily I didn't destroy it trying to extract it from the roots. As soon as I got it in my hand, I knew what it was... WATCH FOB!
It's a 1908 William Jennings Bryant presidential watch fob. This guy lost three presidential elections!
This was my prize of the week!
Thanks for looking and best of luck on your hunts!
