Nice finds! Cool items mixed in there! As a former corporate tax guy that Arizona remittance token is pretty neat - I checked them out and not a lot of value but an interesting area of token collecting!

Your second 5 Mill AZ Tax Token...Way to Go!!! There's 1 mills out there too.
PM me if you want a set of uncirculated ones.
 
Congratulations on some great finds. Did you put your wheat pennies in a tumbler before the pictures were taken? I ask because I've been considering throwing a batch of wheats into my Lortone for a few hours.
 
Nice finds, congrats and cool tokens. Do you tumble your coins and tokens? The last Arizona tax token I found I used the boiling peroxide method and it cleaned up pretty good that way.
 
Mercs are my faves. Nice job. That's a lot of wheats too. How long was your hunt?
We usually hunt about 4 hours now that its cool out, in the summer about a hour or so at daybreak as it's to hot once the suns up.

Yes, thats makes 3 this month, and one of the 1 mills. We seem to find those tax token's all over the state.

Yes we tumble everything accept Silver and anything valuable. I use steel shot, like bb's, a little gravel and laundry soap. A couple of hours and they are clean enough for the coinstar but we keep the wheat's in pickle jars by decade.

Sweet finds! I use aquarium stones in my tumbler, otherwise the same process essentially.
 
Nice variety of finds. Tokens look great. I do the same in tumbler, but too lazy to sort by dates. Wheats all in one big container. Good hunting!
