I found an Indian Head Penny. Probably the reason the B+ circuitry was fried. Made restoring a Crosley 146 even more stupid-difficult than the usual Crosley stupid difficult.

I say this because Crosley was advertised as an "affordable" set. They used cheap components and squeezed them on to or under a small chassis.
The ones I specialize in (1932-35) were especially prone to MARVELOUS problems.
