Unusually large token

[Ism]

The other day I was hunting a school property and got a nice soft signal in 4KHz that ID'd at 93-96.
I switched to 8KHz and it trended upward from 95-98. That indicated a high conductor target so I dug.

After 6 inches I hit a clay layer that was about 2-3 inches. Once I broke through, I was close to the target.
When I flipped the dirt up at near 12" I saw what looked like the edge of a large copper washer.
Figures I thought to myself....until I brushed some of the dirt off and discovered this huge token.
The dime (found later), is used for comparison.

The Token (2.5" dia. and 3/16" thick) is a 1930 Crane Co.
Fairly common I guess and doesn't command any significant value, but it is a cool find so I wanted to share it.

Great find there! I think my programs would have notched this baby out - glad you had the tenacity to pull it up!

I know I would have probably passed that by assuming it was a huge piece of deep trash.

Duke, I would have also but it was early in the hunt and I was hoping for big silver.

This area causes weird behavior on coins with ID's jumping several numbers on a pass. The site is full of iron and non-ferrous trash including coke, so that might contribute.
Yesterday I dug a merc dime that read 91-92 in 4KHz (jumped around a bit).
In 8KHz it read 91-93. I was sure it was a deep crown cap, but since it read just a little higher in 8KHZ, I dug and I'm glad I did.
I'm not sure why the dime registered so faint and high ID at 6 inches unless it was on edge, but most of the coins I find at this site are very iffy signals.
