Today's Stuff...: Silver Coinage

Here are the keepers I found today. Same church as yesterday where I found the 1831 & 1851LC's and the 1856 Seated Dime/Love Token...: No date SLQ, 1950 Washington, 1919 Merc.

That is an awesome hunnt
 
I'd of done the happy dance. Good finds.
 
Your SLQ is either 1920 or 1930; the zero can be seen when magnified.

And you may be able to study the date structure from the two eras to determine which it is. I believe in 1925 they recessed the date to hopefully have it wear more slowly.
 
About 5X as many '20s were minted versus the '30, but the value of the '20 is about 3X greater than the '30 (in G-4 condition) since, as 'testing 123' noted, reading the date on the '30 became more lasting since the date was recessed.
