50 cent bank token, 1916 merc, Injun & some wheaties............

[Rich in Central PA]

Hello friends, been out a few times this month, gotta few keepers here and there, so thought I'd show what I got last 2 outings........


Headed up to the old abandoned boy scout camp last week (circa 1910 -1940) with junkhunter and yellerstang and managed to pull this 1916 merc out of the ground. Was praying for a D when I saw the 16, but no luck this time.


Was out this beautiful morning at the old Bunker Hill picnic grove here in Shamokin, PA and dug this very nice "Market Street National Bank" token. Check out the detail on the token.

This 1884 Indianhead and these 4 Wheaties: 1913, 1917, 1924, and 1942. Thanks for looking.......Rich

Last year 'junkhunter' showed us a similar find. You may wish to contact him to see if he has a further history on your token.

Nice to see some old stuff come from somewhat near my hometown!

I have never found a 1916 but I am glad becuase that would be a heck of a let down. Very nice hunt.

Nice job, Rich. Tokens are fun.

 

[jewelerguy]

even without the 'D', that's a really nice merc... hard to find those early ones with that little wear

 

[umrgolf]

Nice token, some salty coins in there too
