These finds were from Saturday 8/1. Hit it for a few hours and was able to pick out a few keepers.
1917 Merc is pretty slick, no idea if there was ever a Mint mark.
1908 IH is in great shape and has an awesome green color. I've had good luck cleaning the IH's this year by letting them dry out for an hour or so when I get home, then gently rubbing them with a tooth pick. Crazy how the green color explodes out afterwards. Another one of the Indian's is completely roached out. I can barely make out the points of the head-dress.
Hope you're all able to get out.
