I went back to the old country church again today, found 16 Wheats, 11 memorials, 1 clad dime and 2 more Merc's. 1937-d and a 1941-d. I found all of them in the gravel parking lot, just like I did last Sat. The pennies are pretty corroded from the limestone rocks and the 41 merc is bent, it was only 3in down. The 37 was 9in down. I got a blister on the palm of my hand from digging in the rocks, but it was worth it
