I apologize for going MIA, but, hunting season's just about over here in the Northeast. I haven't been out in weeks since the chill came in. Been busy actually doin stuff I neglected to all year because of detecting, lol! I packed away my detector last week, but, we had a monster rainstorm on the eve of Thanksgiving eve. We've been in a semi-drought since mid summer, so, it was too much to pass up...I decided to hit the dirt today  

I snagged an old cuff link, an old bus token, a 188something Indian, a few wheats, and my best find is the one in the pic below. It's a copper trade token. The things beat to shreds, but, one of the coolest I've ever found. It says good for one cent in trade, so, I'm guessing turn of the century or early 1900's. I can't find any info whatsoever on the company.

Great token. Sounds like you had a good hunt in the cold. I took all my batteries out last night too. A sad moment.

Cool token and glad to see you were able to sneak out in Late Nov.
