The Yocums settled on the James River in Stone County, Mo. in the 1830's. Ozark Folklore says the 4 Yocum Brothers made their own Silver Dollars from Silver mined by the Delaware Indians. I found this Half Dollar size of solid Silver on Yocum's land yesterday. I also found several 1830's flat Buttons I was wondering if they might have used smaller pieces of Silver for smaller coins or maybe they just used the Silver to trade with the Indians. If you have any Ideas please comment
