My girlfriend lives in a small apartment complex where there used to be an old house, so the temptation to poke around has been to much to bear. The first time i hit the yard area, i found a 1945-s mercury dime, tried it again this evening and found a 1917-s mercury dime and a 1904 Dr. Pepper Louisiana Purchase Exposition Silver Medal Watch Fob. Any info on it would be great. I thought it might be silver but its brass with nickel plating. I did a little research on the web and one sight claims its worth from between 200.00 - 400.00 dollars. Complete with all the nickel plating 400 with the plating missing 200. Any info would be wonderful.. Ill hit that place again theres a ton of clad 4 inches and above, the merc was 7 inches down standing up on end and went off....1-40/12-43/12-44/1-40, and it was difficult to pinpoint. I almost didnt dig it because of the 1-40 but the tone had that distinct silver sound. The Fob went off 11-46/12-45/6/45/7-46/ in that quarter- half range, and it was deep 9 inches down.
