1840 I think but very bad shape - If anybody can let me know more on this token I would appreciate it.

The other side says 1 cent - don't have a clue what country - I think it is 1846 seen at bottom.

Looks like you had a good time! Nice finds.
If that Charles River Park is the one I think it is, you guys did better there than I do.Think the best I've pulled out of there is a buffalo and some wheats. Don't know where you managed to find parking meters there though so wondering if it's a different park.
Yeah, the Cambridge Common seems to be pretty much fill dirt. I hit it pretty hard again a few nights back and was finding clad and screw caps pretty deep. Did find a nice 12g silver ring on the surface though. Oldest coin was a '48 wheat just under the surface in one of the spots where the macadam sidewalk is worn away.

Hey buddy!!!
Thanks for the kind words! It was an absolute pleasure to meet you and Greg and to spend some time hunting the park. I know the silver count wasn't what you would have hoped for, but at least you got that LC. I'm sorry about the park down in Plymouth!
If you guys ever plan to come this way again, hopefully I can take some time off work so we could do more hunting. I'll have to do more research and get us some places that'll yield higher quantities of silver also.
You guys are alright- I had a blast!!
Take care..........

Thanks for the post, and your comment on Cambridge common.
The park that I show in my post is square across the street from Mr. Longfellow small park. I think there is more in there, all the coins were around 6" deep except the LC that was down under. Being that I don't think I will be back to Boston for a while no sense in me saving the park for myself. We found most of the stuff in the center part of the triangle. We did not hit the edges at all and the tip of the triangle as my pic shows was not hit either. I think the site should be at least gone over a few times more. I also found 6 or 7 silvers in the small Longfellow park - some of those were shallow coins. Not sure how much would be left over there. Good luck -
BTW - We were looking for your spot were you found all those Continental coppers - LOL - but couldn't find the spot.

I am already planning on taking my wife on trip there - next fall. Not much hunting time but I bet I could talk her in to letting me go at least one day.
We are going to vacation in NY, Boston, Maine, Niagara falls, and being from Utah we plan on site seeing the Palmyra (east of Rochester) area of NY.
Thanks again for meeting up with us and sharing your time.
BTW - after hanging out in Boston and Harvard Square I think I have been liberalized.

That is the same park then.
I keep concentrating on the stretch straight out Longellow where there used to be a walkway. I guess I need to stop doing that. The only interesting things I've found there have been along the edges. Was a swamp at one point in the early 1800s. Never picked up much in L park either. Hmmmm... Sounds like I need to do something different when I go back there again.
