Pretty Merc saves day.

It was a slow one. But finally got one of those signals we all love to hear.



She was black coming out of the ground. Cleaned up nice.



Couple wheats and a lock front to boot.



And a few old bottles I encountered in my travels. A little rough but intact.

Yesterday's finds...

1917-D Mercury Dime
(2) Wheatback cents 1937-D, 1951-D
Brass lock front
ACL Milk Bottle, Creamery unidentifiable, "Phone 57"
(2) Olive/Pickle jars

Good looking dime!

I'll bet it is shining as bright as your smile when you popped it out of the ground.
