Yesterday's finds from old timberframed cabin, 1916 Merc, buckle....
Hey you all, yesterday was a beautiful day here in the mountain state, tons of sunshine and a high of about 50. Headed off to an old cabin site that I had hunted before with a little luck (wheatie, buffalo). Arrived at the site at about noon and hunted till four, Finds were few and far between but I did manage to pull this terribly worn 1916 Merc out of the dirt next to the well at the site, it has a mintmark but you can't see it well, looks like its an S. Were the mintmarks on the 1916's in a slightly different position than on the 1917's and after? This mintmark is pretty high as can be seen on the reverse in the picture. That was the only coin that I found, although I did get this small valve and buckle. Also found 3 unbroken white glass jar lid seals, people will buy these on ebay if in good condition. Got bored of not finding much after 4 hours and the owners came by. I didn't want to get in their way so I decided to call it a day. Weather is just as good today so I'll probably head out again.....just wish I knew where. Thanks for looking and HH
