Railway token found with Vaquero

Hunted the park yesterday with my Vaquero and stock coil . I've been super tuning it , trying to find deep stuff left behind by the other detectorist . I'm really concentrating on the faint mellow tones . So I had the sens set at the end of the red , GB neutral , Disc at min. and threshold set at slightly above a hum in all metal . I dont want the threshold any higher because I use that pinpoint button often just to hear what the targets sound like in all metal . Its a very useful button .So I got this faint but solid tone that disc out at nickle and thats exactly what I was expecting . I got down to about 7 inches , the length of my digger , and the pinpointer finally sounded but there were several rocks in the way . I had to enlarge the hole to go deeper . I cut another access plug popped the rocks out and another couple of inches deeper I finally got a signal in the dirt pile . This thing is tiny with holes in it ,a lot less than the the mass of a dime .Its a railway token from a neighboring town . The reverse reads GOOD FOR ONE FARE . That Vaquero will go get them.

 
Nice, I like finding stuff like that. Silver is great, but stuff like that is more exciting than finding another rosie or merc dime for me anyhow.
 
hatpin, that is one awesome token!

I think I need to hunt around some old train station areas...
 
Congrats! It is fun ro pop up an old token.
 
Sweet!
