Nice Merc Woody,
Welcome aboard, I think you will find that this is the best Treasure Forum out there, because there is such a wide range of experience and detectorist who use all different kinds of metal detectors.

Great job on the silver. Man, the only silver I've gotten has been old rosies. My first "nice" coin was an 1899 Indian Head on my first day out. Only been doing this for about a month myself. Anyway, welcome to the forum and benefit from all the experience.

Welcome and you found a fantastic coin for sure. I like finding a merc, any day of the week will do. Thanks for sharing. :)
 

For newbies, finding a merc dime and an IH penny is doing PRETTY DARN GOOD!!

Keep at it, and you'll be hitting the big stuff soon. :)
