1940-S & 1945-S Mercury dimes!

Hello!

I got out today for a few hours ~ during my lunch break, and then a couple hours after work and met up with Ron. I sure like this time change ~ the sun-shine later is great for our hobby! Here's what I dug today:

1940-S Mercury Dime
1945-S Mercury Dime
8 wheat cents ~ 1941 to 1955
11 clad quarters
27 clad dimes
3 modern nickels
71 Memorial cents
1 Canadian nickel

I took pic's of the dimes before & after I cleaned 'em up! They are my silver coin finds #14 & #15 for 2009!

Nice finds, Neil. Your lunch breaks seem to always be dedicated to something other than lunch :D
