Easement Finds Silver

[Alchemist]

Took a shot at a home that's been up for sale which had a long easement out front. Fairly old, 1908....just a block down really from where I grew up. LOTS of clad pennies, but no sooner did I tell myself the odds have to be building in my favor, I popped one merc, then a wheat, then another merc and wheat. The dating is all that same period: 1910 cents, 1920 and '39d mercs. Picked up a great medallion near the end; Zerolene Keychain/fob? Crazy name. I included an ad (1914) from when I believe the medallion originates. Any other info is welcomed

I wonder if I should call the realtor about the rest of the property...big yard. Happy hunting.

You got a twofer twofer. Sweet.

I'm calling a realtor myself within the next day or two. An old Victorian home just went up for sale that I've had my eye on for over a year. I stopped by Saturday when I saw a lady on the porch but she was just looking. It's one of those beautiful, almost gaudy looking old semi mansions with lots of spires, octagonal windows and a huge wrap around porch. It sits on about three semi wooded acres and I just KNOW there is treasure to be had there. I just have one of those feelings about this one. I really hope I can get permission and get in there before someone buys it.

Congrats on your double Merc's and wheats. The medallion name sounds like an old time automotive concoction to me. You can probably Google the name and maybe find out what it is.
