Old Camp Finds.

[John - Maryland]

Hunted an old Boy's Camp yesterday. The camp was active from around 1905 - 1970. I was a camper there in 1967. After almost 40 years of being closed I was hunting in the woods, but you could still make out certain areas like the flat spots where the tennis court, and the basketball courts were even though there were trees there now. Here are some of the things I found. In the early days they had WW1 Tents and those are 5 tent rope tighteners from those tents. Found many Wheaties, and silver. 1929 WL, 1903 Barber Dime, 1937& 1944 merc's, 1963 Rosie. I also found this Coin that says Cracker jack coin (Zachary Taylor). Cracker Jack mystery Club. Anyone have any information on this.

I have also found one of these coins. If memory serves, it was a collect all in this series and then send in for a prize. I remember finding them in my Cracker Jacks when I was younger.
