Door Knocking Saturday

Doug, Malachi, Diane and I went door knocking today. We hunted three different houses, at the first I got the Camp Custer token, Camp Custer was a marshalling center in Battle Creek Michigan for the Michigan National Guard for the troops being sent overseas during WWI. The picture is of the Mess hall. The next house Diane got the Presidential Token of McKinley. These tokens were made by the Osborne Register Company of Cincinnati and were issued in 1941. The next house turned out to be the best with Diane getting three wheats and I scored a double silver with a 1929 Merc and what I think is either 1918 or 1919 Merc… it is one worn dime. Glad it was not a 1916 because I would go crazy wondering if it was a D since the back is more worn than the front. Also got a 1929 Buffalo nickel in very nice shape and a 1940 Jeff.

Nice coins and tokens! That camp might be a good spot to research and locate for a future hunt.

Not a bad day at all, the token for the Camp Custer is really great. I have to agree, I think that is a 1916 merc... rofl. Silvers, wheats and a buff is a good day. :congrats:
