<p>[QUOTE=&quot;J.T. Parker, post: 24719846, member: 106405&quot;]Hi Mad</p><p>Living close to Galveston, strangely enough, I did very little hunting beaches as salt water has an adverse effect on all silver coins. Most of my silver was found hunting H.U.D./V.A. house locations, private property, (w/ permission) &amp; parks built prior to 1964. One of the best locations found was an empty lot in the heart of downtown Houston where I started finding brass 5¢ &#039;Good For&#039; tokens made for the log mill at Carolina TX. Until then, no tokens were known from this mill.&nbsp; Carolina TX ceased to exist by the end of the 1920&#039;s. These tokens caused quite a feeding frenzy between token collectors in TX.&nbsp; (I recall trading a nice example for one roll of VF mercury dimes!). Hope you have good luck hunting, as surly other &#039;treasures&#039; are awaiting.</p><p>J.T.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
