1828 FARMHOUSE YIELDS SOME GOODIES

[DigginVt]

Hello All, back from Alaska. Great trip, good fishing and sightseeing with the family. Got back Friday and today was my first day out, hit a new 1828 farm house.

Found an 1844 Canadian Bank Token Half Penny.

That's a nice bunch of finds, Jon. I've been waiting to see pics of all the nuggets you reaped in Alaska. How'd it go up there? Beautiful place, isn't it?

I found the same token, but 1842 on the farm site that I have been hitting hard. Nice to see someone else got one as well.
