Went to several places this morning - dug 64 coins, none old, another Lord of the Rings ring,& a bunch of odds & ends.

Here's a brass sunburst, a $100 peso coin - thought I'd hit the big one it was so golden, and a token from So Nevada that I cant make out.

Lastly, here's something I need help identifying. What does it say and what is it ? Steve in so az
 
The Territorial Seal (of Nevada) contained the motto, "Volens et Poten" which means "Willing and Able." In 1866 the motto was legally changed to "All for Our Country."
The language is French. Would guess it to be some sort of military badge but couldn't find anything other than the above in Google search.
Nice finds there Steve. Congrats and hope someone will be able to help ID that badge or medal.

Thanks Pete - the token I have pictured also is from Nevada & was dug in the same area - wonder if they were dropped by the same person ? Steve

is worth nothing in the US - and very little in Mexico, if you can get someone to take it. They changed to bi-metal coins only some years back.
However, a peso is about 10 cents so it would be a dollar US. Also, in Mexico the $ sign they use does not mean dollar but it means peso. Steve in so az
