so i roll out of bed and grab the good ole 202 and roll. only my 2ND time out this week. so i decide to hit the 100+ year old park for the 1st time since i got DA new coil :icon_pirat: finds were far n few but the 202 did not let me down. managed 5 pennies and a Qtr. but i managed to score a 1918 wheat by the tree line. and then i got a good hit on the top of a slope and pulled a nice Merc!! was almost ready to killover when i brushed off the dirt and saw the date. 1916( my 1st ever pre 1940 Merc ) until i flipped it over and seen that the d was not there :'( so after taking a breather to calm my ticker. i managed a few end stamps, but all an all this is a area i have worked before. but silver is good and I'm still happy to have dug it ;D best digs to all MR TUFF

Nice silver Merc. Yep too bad about the D mint missing....But at least you got your blood pumping for that..Nice finds. jgas
 

Nice merc there silver is always good.
 

Still a sweet find :thumbsup:

:wink: RR
 

Maybe not a stroke, but a possible change of clothing, panic attack. Still, that's in great shape for a 1916.
 

Silver is always good on the hunt. Nice find....Matt
 

Look closer, I can swear I see a D !

Nice find.
