Old still site

[diggerranger]

I was searching for another colonial site and found the pitcher pump. I then dug a bunch of barrel bands and part of the pipe to the pump.I noticed six old concrete blocks in a four foot square. I guess they took the cooper pots with them. I started searching slow and found lots of shotgun brass, a crown flat button, pewter spoon handle, and what I think is a brass spoon handle. I was walking out after a hour and got the silver signal and saw it was a mercury. When I got home and got the loupe our I saw it was a 1916 D.

I think a 1916d deserves to be in the thread title at least

Congrats

Do you have any up close pictures of the 1916 D dime you can post?

Very nice hunt!

Congratualtions on the 1916 D Mercury dime! IMHO: I would post that dime in a single thread with the coin as part of the title (as Bologna321 suggested)!

Please post close up photos of the front and back so we can also enjoy the experience.

Not in best condition but easier to identify than large coppers.View attachment 1606240
