Spectra V3i Uncovers History

I found this medallion from the presidential campaign of James K. Polk (11th U.S. President 1845 - 1849) and George Dallas (Vice President) at an old colonial house near Goshen, NY. You can see from the photos that it is in very good condition and still has quite a bit of the gold gilt on it. While I love finding old coins, I must say that this is one of the rarest and most rewarding finds in my 30 years of metal detecting!
 
That is a great find and I bet it goes in your personal "Hall of Fame"..........:clapping: Congratulations.
 
Super find. I wish it were mine. ROB
 
Very nice
 
You know....you can bust your tail...find after find, and those kinds of finds have so much "more" to remember the finding. What a nice find!
 
It was reading like a pop top around 50 - 53, at about 7 inches. I was surprised when I dug it. I was using the D2 coil.
 
Congratulations!!! Super find!
 
Kyle, I think it's some kind of copper/brass alloy with gold gilt (thin plating), still researching it.
