found in my yard about 7 or 8 inches down and read a +80 on the XLT.
I was jumping for joy on my way in to clean it ;D
Well it was almost my first silver if it had not been for that 1943 nickel. HH,

It's still a first for your Merc...Right!
You'll find more I am sure.
I rejoice with you brother.
 

I remember finding my first Merc 1939 and still smile thinking about it 3 weeks later I found my 1942 Merc and jumped around the lot. Still waiting on my third. ;)
