The coins in the picture were found on the 9th of Oct. Greg H and I had gone out toward the Brooklyn Mine and
found a Depression Era mining camp. There were 5 Buffalo Nickels dated 1916s, 1917d, 1919s, 1928s and one
date unreadable. Two Dimes, a Barber dated 1903 and Mercury dated 1916. One Penny dated 1919. All were
found within 2 feet of each other. 46 cents was a pretty big lose for a miner from that time period.
