Token, Badge, and 2 Wheats

Kentucky · Mar 3, 2010

Had a good hunt today. The wheats are a 48 and 52. They were stuck together when I found them. The green token has a clover on one side and a star on the other. The badge is really just a pin about the size of a quarter and was found only about an inch down. I e-mailed the owner to see if he would like me to send it to him. He is a county sheriff and lives at the other end of the state from me. The good luck token was found about a foot from the pin.

Good finds! That might be one of those little mini badges that they give away to kids for helping out....I imagine a real badge is alot bigger than a quarter.

Good hunt. How did you determine the badge owner? Engraved? Numbered? Just curious. RickO

The "badge" is a pin worn on a uniform shirt. It has his name, title, and county stamped on it. I goggled him and he is still in office and it had his work e-mail. At first I thought it was one given to kids but it isn't. He replied to my e-mail and said to keep it. He said he did not know where he had lost it. I will add it to my treasure chest.

that was very cool of the sheriff to give it to you, that gives it more conversation value also :yes:

I'd wear that badge all the time, especially when detecting. Then if the police ever approached you just....

Thanks for showing us your finds and taking us along for the hunt!!

I agree with Riff. The badge stands alone as a great find and nice addition to you treasure case but to have the nice story to go with it makes it more special. I love this stuff. Thanks for sharing it with us. :grin:
