Cool stuff there Dooly. I decided to do a little in my backyard of my new house. The house was built in 78' and so far I've found .51. What neat is most have been in the sixties just after silver tho'. This was an interesting find for me today tho' is why I'm posting it.

A little info I found dating the name:
In 1898, in the western United States, the B. J. Johnson Soap Company began to make a soap entirely of palm and olive oil. The advertised advantage of this soap was that it floated. The soap was popular enough that in 1916 the Johnson brothers renamed their company after it - Palmolive. In 1926 the Peet Brothers' soap company merged with Palmolive to become Palmolive-Peet. In 1928, Palmolive-Peet merged with the Colgate Company to create the Colgate-Palmolive-Peet Company. For many year after 1928 Octagon Soap was produced by Colgate-Palmolive-Peet.
