Good Luck SilverHound! Nice Pictures. I seem to find the silver coins in about a 10 Wheats to 1 silver coin ratio. How about your area?

My brother-in-law found an identical one at some time in the past - he showed me some of his finds when we visited at Thanksgiving. His was found somewhere in the Winston-Salem area.

OK, be slow, I'm wishing I could keep up with you! Yep, Found a Princess Pat compact up here in Chicagoland about five years back, broken glass also. I believe at the time I had a lady nearby say she did not think these were all that old, perhaps as recent as the 60's.
That Wheatie or IH to Dime ratio will be very wide ranging for alot of different reasons. I've had dime only days and cent-only months with the same settings on the same machines.
