Seated, Barber, Tokens and Toy Pistols

floodplaindetector

Well-known member
Finds are from the past few weekend hunts. My detecting time has been a little more limited lately, so everything was found very close to home in North Dakota.
The seated, barber and toy flint lock pistol and one of the tokens was pulled in a city park only 15 miles from home with my XP Deus 2.
The seated dime was on complete edge and surrounded by nails and other junk.
The toy flintlock pistol was pulled at the same site as the seated and barber dimes, and I was happy to get it as intact as it was. It is a 1950s Nichols ‘Buccaneer’ toy pistol.

The small brass diamond shaped token is a good one. It is from a small ND town with < 40 population.
That lead toy squirt gun and 1926 buffalo was pulled at that site.
The Alligator lacing key fob is another interesting find. It was pulled at another close by old school site. The company that made it was founded in 1907,

Thanks for looking!
Dave

WOW !!! A lot of really cool and great finds !!! WTG !!!! When I started land hunting many years ago, I lived in Princeton.
Even then, I never found much really old stuff. Guess I was not in in the right location...ABSOLUTELY NO hunting on Princeton University per security.
I died every day I drove through the college.
