Since I did a marathon in chatroom Sat. nite, I overslept and had to miss going to one of my favorite sites. Instead went to where the cap badge was found next to an abandoned auction house. Not bad for a little time. Already had permission to remove some porch boards and decided to do so. Ran a slow pattern after moving most surface trash. Came up with a "Banks" "Good for 1 quart of milk"-holed unfortunately and 2 wheaties which after soaking in olive oil were 1916D and 1919D. Hopefully the matching Merc. is lurking nearby. HH y'all

Free, I think it is the original porch. THe boards are like 1 X 4's and are weather warped. Some are half gone and most are just sitting there with the nails rusted through. On top of this the yard has more s(crap) than most parks! including under the porch.

Think your eyes are still half shut from that long night Stoney,not the camera .Nice finds, love the token.From your finds it looks like your going to have some more nice ones after you work through the trash.HH

Jarman, that may have been part of it. I think my computer took a couple of naps before I did that night. . DigginD, must be all the goose poop on the screen. HAHA Actually I just need to practice more with different lighting and distance. I've got a little tripod, just too lazy to use it.

Here's last try at getting it right, otherwise it's trading in the bucket of silver for a scanner. LOL
