Weekend Finds - 1865 Indian / V / Buffalo / Tiny Penny / Mercs / Tokens

[floodplaindetector]

I got out this Thanksgiving weekend to some area city parks and schools and got a few finds.
Indian Head pennies are 1865, 1902, 1906. The 1865 is my 88th Indian Head Penny for the year..
Mercury dimes are 1927, 1939, 1942. The 1927 Merc is my 219th silver coin for the year.
V nickel is 1900. Buffalo nickel is 1913d.
The tiny penny is vintage 1964.
The round aluminum beat up token is a Charms Candy Abe Lincoln Token.

Also found are Miscellaneous buttons, a 1941 Dog tax token, A Model T ? Car Key,
I believe the religious medal is an older one based on the style.
I am unsure what the 1907 patent date item is. If anyone has ideas please let me know.

Great array of finds, Flood. The condition of that soap token is pretty amazing. Those aluminum tokens are usually completely toasted when I find them.

Nice finds, FPD! Is the 1913-D Buff the one on the plain or the mound? The one on a plain is worth quite a bit..........

Hey Dale,

it is the more common mound variety. Thanks for the thought though.

Great finds and variety as always flood! Interesting item that large aluminum(I suppose) replica of the Lincoln penny. It had the date of the first year of circulation on left and the date of Lincoln's death on right. Never seen one of those. By the way, have you ever told us how you clean your nickels. They look great! 219 silver's for the year is Ridiculous! ! Great going!

Thanks Chipper97!
Yes, it is an aluminum coin made by Charms Candy Company. On the back it has some info about Lincoln .e.g. where he was born, profession, etc.
My wife has been cleaning my nickels lately so they look a little better as she spends more time on them. I have always used a brass brush. She uses a brass brush and also SOS pads.
