I went out for a quick hunt in the local woods today, where I thought would be a good little strip to hunt. Not more than 10 mins. into the hunt, I got a solid 12-45 at 6". I knew right away it would be a silver dime, I was just hoping it was a Barber..came out to be a 1918-3 Merc. 
A few mins. later an awesome high tone breaking through a null. The numbers were all over the place, due to trash in the ground I'm sure. It was showing between 6"-8" on the depth meter, so I dug it...1927 Merc.
Not too long after that, I got a repeatable high tone with a reading of 12-43/44. I've dug a few wheaties in this range, but also a bunch of silver dimes. So this one was up in the air of whether it would be penny or dime. To my surprise popped out the 2nd 1918-s Merc.
Last good signal came in at 5" and gave me a reading of 12-46/47. I was sure it was going to be a quarter, and was hoping for another SLQ. When I popped it out, it looked like a really dirty/caked Quarter, but after knocking off some of the dirt, I saw it was an aluminum token. It's a Henry Harrison Cracker Jacks token.
Not bad for a quick hunt. I was out for less than 2 hours due to technical difficulties
This brings me to 98 silvers for the year. Only 2 away from the big 'ole 100
Oh yeah, I also got this old lock
Any idea of what kind it may be...It has some writing on it, but can't make it out right now.
Can't wait for 99 and 100. Until then, enjoy and HH!
