Turned the X-Terra 50 loose on another location...

Well-known member
I went to a new site a couple of weeks ago an searched an area that gave many iron signals and a few old home items.
I did some research and found out there was a huge house located here that was built in the 1870's.
With this information and knowing the location of the house. My buddy and I went there and searched yesterday and I made some decent finds although some of the finds date much later than the house.
In three hunts here, I have recovered 3 silver dimes, 5 wheat pennies, and two old tokens... one being the Cracker Jack mystery club token that from my research appears to have been issued from about 1933 until 1936.
Never found one or heard of one until this one was found yesteday.
Took some heavy cleaning to get enough info to research it.
Thanks for looking,
Felix
 
Congrat's on the nice finds.

I do not know how many times I have MDed a house from the late 1800's and to only find coins and other things from the 30's to the 50's.
 
GoingHunting4History found one, but he's the only other detectorist that I know that has.

Nice finds! What's the other token?
 
The other token is much worse shape and I didn't even try to get a photo, but it has "J. L. KELLER, DRUGGIST, STATIONER, GOOD FOR 5, UNIVERSITY OF VA., GLASS SODA WATER.
All this is on one side and the other side is blank.
Tried to do some research on it, but haven't found any information on it yet.
I found one exactly like it a couple of years ago in a city park near where this one was found.
