[QUOTE="JD3, post: 668622, member: 18172"] I used to know the bloke who made and planted the DH tokens. He is not around anymore. They were as common as flies back in the 80s and 90s. I only caught him out by accident one day detecting with him. I was walking over to him as he had just dug something up, he didn't see me, he looked at what he had and said "bugger it, i just stooged myself". I always held him in suspicion for them. That convinced me. He tried to deny it but to me it didn't matter, it was him. I think to this day im the only one who knows. And it stays that way. I reckon in those yrs I found dozens of them. The majority were planted around Dunolly, Tarnagulla, Waanyarra and Moliagul. You are the first iv heard getting one from Kingower. I never found one there. One friend I know found over 100 of them around Tarnagulla and Waanyarra. I only kept one as a momento, this one. [ATTACH type="full"]9886[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
