I almost didn't post because it seems a little suspect that I had just posted on Monday that I had never found a Mercury Dime and just 3 days later I found one....and in fairly good condition minus the gash i put in it. I also found in modern coins 13 pennies, 2 quarters, 3 dimes...older coins I found 8 wheaties...1942D, 1957D, 19??, 1941, 1944, 1938, 1950 and 1942...AND a "play golf" token. I found all of this in my buddy's front yard all in about an hour and a half. I guess in the last post I should have said that I have never found a gold coin...Enjoy the pics.

Wow, nice finds and Congrat. on the Mercury. Usually after you find
your first one, they seem to come more often. That's the way it was for
me when I found my first Seated coin. Keep us posted on you next find.
I really like the token. HH, Ringfinder.
