1761 Swedish one ore coin

[Merf]

My mytery button makes sense now. At 77 my memory is not the best. I think I found this Swedish one ore coin at the same spot as the button. A trappers cabin field site in northern illinois shown on the oldest platt map.

Cool! Maybe some early Swedish settler dropped it long ago when Illinois was a wilderness!

Yes I think there were trappers here in the 1700s

Definitely gives me hope to find something really old around here. Cool find.
