Rolled up to an out of towner cherry picking. He left w 3 merc dimes, lucky!

Grabbed a ton of clad, but my favs are the 1915 or 1917 wheatie and my first merc dime!

Edit: what is that copper star? Its a pin. No idea how old it is as the pins still attached on the back

Great finds Pdr! Thanks for sharing...
 
The pin looks like American Legion or Lions Club.
 
I agree Pin looks like a Club pin.

Congrats on your first Mercury
 
Mercury or Roosevelt?
 
Jokes on me. Turns out its a 1 Escudo from Portugal. The 1 under the grime looked like the torch of a merc. Shoot.
 
That's a Roosevelt dime, congrats on your first...
 
Looking at the Girl scouts logo the pin has the same shape as their logo but I didn't see any matches for that. Not the outer part of the pin but the inner part of the pin is where I see the resemblance to the G.S.A. logo.
 
Interesting, never wouldve thought that for the Girl Scouts. Ill check it out! Thanks!
