Default A good day in the woods

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was 70 degrees today and the frost has left the ground. [in most places]
I found this 1917 Merc, 1917 Wheatie, and a pill box.
It was great to hunt on a warm day with no frost.

Is that a silver pill box. It looks like it to me, but that is just a guess.

I think the pill box might be silver plated but not sure.
When I get it open maybe I can tell.
Used a little WD 40 and letting it sit for a couple of days.
