Hit some places today - dug 62 coins, a Tonka truck, watch with perfect time, odd coin, Catholic medal.

Here's the watch - a Benrus - still running, completely intact. Got it about 3-4 inches down in chipbark, haven't cleaned it yet. It's waterproof to 100 ft - What does the SAB 30 mean ? The date ? I dont wear a watch so will probably give it away.
The medal is stamped 1830 but it's modern. I asked a Catholic priest one time after I dug another one and he looked it up in their book and said it commemorates an event that took place in 1830.

Finally, can anyone ID this coin item? It's a little larger than a quarter. The center is thicker than the edge.

is short for Sabbath. Maybe it is from a 7th Day Adventist, or a Jehovahs Witness.

I like the coin item, but don't know about it? As for the watch, SAB must mean -

the coin or whatever looks like it might commemorate a god or goddess, because of the wings, dragon and lion...maybe Chinese or Egyptian?
The watch is very nice also! I think most or all Catholic medallions have 1830 on them!
God Bless!
