Some neat finds CWN! thumbsup01 I love finding those rouge compacts-that one looks unique.
:clapping: Congrats on the rare merc, my favorite coin now-a-days :smitten:
Hope you can join our local club for a group hunt :) I think it's going to be next Sunday afternoon at the old church camp. I'll keep you posted.

Nice hunt. A 21D, that's a pretty tough one to pull.

That's a large amont of musket balls! :shocked04:.
:grin: I noticed you turned the Merc around when you turned the heart thingy over. :clapping:
I also find stuff like that...you'd think a coin or two would be mixed in. Do you find many coins that date with the relics? Only once in a while for me.

A 1921 Merc is the 3rd rarest coin in the series( not counting the overstrikes).
