Well my plan was to go out to the woods to do a bit of bottle hunting but I found more tokens than I did bottles, didn't even need my metal detector!!! I was able to clean them off a bit and see what they say:

-G. & E. Co. Urbana & Champaign -- U. & C. RY / U. & C. RY. - Good for one full fare
-Not Redeemable / Not Redeemable
-Advertising Keeney's Refresh-Mints / Good For 5¢ In Trade

  • Nice tokens TF! You just never know what lies under the surface. You're right about being too hot. Dang! it's been 98 here for the past 3 days with more hot weather coming. I usually do my research during the hot summer months anyway. Try skin-so-soft from avon. It works really well here for skeeters and deer flies. I hate those SOB's! LOL.

  • @huntin4relics Thanks for the heads up bud, thanks for watching.

  • Nice finds, but I know what you mean about the heat and bugs, it hit 108 on the heat index here in Charlotte, NC the day before yesterday. Try to stay cool and keep the videos coming, big fan here in the South! HH

  • @odin351975 Thanks for watching buddy, I want to hop into the river here soon and see if I can't pullup any more old bottles.

  • TF; do you just go to any forest in your area or does this forest in particular have a historical background.?

  • Man you got more moxy than me...I went out in the woods today after the rains stopped and I got about 35 feet into the woods and got chased out of there like a "peeping tom" at a nudist camp. I'm going to try and give it a go again tomorrow...Just so we are crystal im talking about metal detecting in the woods not peeping in on a nudist camp hahah!!!

  • Skin So Soft and Rubbing Alcohol is used at 50/50 mix to combat even sand fleas at USMCRD Parris Island .... should work for woods critters. Railroad tokens are more collectible than some think ... guys want the line that Grandpa used to work for, ect.

  • TF - Nice old tokens. Great finds.  Skin So Soft (Cut it 50% with H20) will cure your bug / insect problem. Good luck. CCH.

  • Great finds there - but you still should have brought your metal detector! Thanks for posting the video.

  • Like the tokens and the stopper is way cool. Mosquitoes are getting bad too, sprayed heavy the other day and still got naile I think they thought the Off was just Barbeque Sauce!!

  • @TreasureFiend ahah its ok if u cant anyways make one :P and dont thank ME, i should be thanking YOU! for taking time to film and edit all these vids.. i know its not easy and for having give aways and everything :P anyways TF u the man ;) lmao HH
