Got some nice looking Mercs today (and one decent looking IH).
In all, three indian head pennies, four mercury dimes, and seven wheat pennies. I also picked up a shield nickel that is so slick you can barely see the five and the stars. Also got a copper. Can't really identify it, as it lacks details. Believe I can see the design of an Upper Canada Bank Half Penny Token (1837 design) but can't be sure.
And then some odd stuff. The broach (buckle?)would appear to be silver, but no hallmark, so maybe plated silver. Nineteen fifties Avon compact. Fine buckle. A cool marble.
The item marked Roanoke, Ind. is also marked Pik-A-Nut. Maybe a freeze plug? The Euthymol Tablets container is complete. Dates to 1906.
