The coins in these pictures didn't come from a flea market but the thought to look at my
Mercury dimes for sale did. Last weekend I took my kids to Norfolk VA and we stopped by a market to look for treasures. They got some stuff and I spent some time watching a fella go through a bunch of Mercs with a loope. I finally asked him what he was looking for in those latter years. Why the 45 horizontal "S" and "S" over "D". Imagine that! A lot of good that
CherryPickers Guide does me when you don't read it. That lit the fuse and off I went. This was in my sale bunch and has since been relocated.

The following pics are a 1909S that was purchased some time ago. Thought I would share the pic since I was fixated on mintmark varieties.
