Good for 1 Drink

[Explorer.se]

I got a chance to finally get out and I scanned a 1915 home. I did not get a wheatie but I did score an old token Good for One Drink, Hotel Anacopa San Buena Ventura. I don’t know anything about this token except I am not able to find it on Google. Does anyone have any info on this token? It was plenty deep, just at 11” down. The ground was very hard to dig I thought I would need a jack hammer to dig. i also found what appears to be jewelry? Is that a diamond? I found these bullet casings at the home as well. That brings me to the question of during what time period did people shoot their rifles and guns at their homes? I had hunted another old home a few months ago and found like 10 casings. I was just curious if anyone knew? Thanks for looking.

I have houses that are unhuntable because of all the shell casings, I mean thousands. Very nice token, might try and look for a token organization for your state.

That’s a great token. It has everything you need to research where it came from. Depending on what state you’re in or whether the site is in town or in the country, people still shoot guns right off the front porch. It’s rare for me to not find a bullet or cartridge, no matter what was on the site.

Nice old token!!
I have occasionally found old cartridge casings around old house sites, but usually find way more shotgun shell hulls around them.

Thanks Floyd yes I am surprised by the amount of casings that I find. I don’t mind finding them but just was wondering was all.

Thanks FW! At first I thought it was my first large cent! But I was more happy when I found out it was a token. Boy it was deep as well, 11”.
