Default 11-29 cache of tokens found

hello all, leelo in illinios here. as much as i would like to take credit for this i cant. my friend Aaron was metal detecting in a town over from me today. he had hit an old 1900's house and went around to the back . around a big old tree he got a big solid hit. it was such big hit around he almost didnt dig it . he got down to about nine inches and checked the pile of dirt but it was still in the hole. pulled out another scoop of dirt and there at the bottom of the hole was covered in disks . after about half an hour he pulled out a total of 96 grocery tokens. circa 1940's various denominations . thought you would like seeing this .wow what a cache . i believe it will make a great white story. thank you all for looking ..good luck and god bless

That's quite a cache. I've never heard of one like that.
You are right it would make a good Whites story, go for it and get the $200.
