So, the rain forced me to return to my 3 year old honey hole only to find an untouched spot on the bottom (go figure) that gave up coins, BOTTLES, ammo, many marbles (19) and 2 pipe stems, oh and of course the 1890 Seated Liberty Dime (mermaid). This is my first seated anything so I am on cloud nine.

The Whiskey appears to have a sand pontil and the clear, rolled lip med says "Johnson's American Anodyne Liniment".

The rest of the coins are clads with the exception of 2-1917 Wheaties.

Excellent haul and a wonderful coin!

A small question if I may, for anyone, how does a person tell a "wonderful" marble from "just another marble"? LOL
I really don't know how to tell the differences. :)
