Well I was in need of a pick me up so I went out to the woods by my house. It was an old Boy Scout camp back starting around the 20's and lasted thru the 60's. I have found 5 other mercs there. I wanted to try my SE on some deep iffy signals. Well the very first iffy that I got was this merc. Then my 2nd iffy was my wheatie. I also found some old junk to, but not bad for an hour's worth of work. Both the merc and the wheatie were down about 9 inches, and they bounced side to side like a good iffy should. I want to get back out in the woods soon, but it is a major pain with all of the tall grass and the saplings all over the place, man I can't wait for fall when everything starts to die off. Its almost too much trouble but I am a glutton for punishment. LOL Thanks for looking. :thumbsup:

Nice Merc TF, congrats!! :thumbsup: keep hitting those woods :icon_pirat:
 

Awesome find....im getting skunked on silver other then a silver ring i found Sunday.Think im gonna have to find me a Merc or a Barber soon.
 

TF, you are crazy, my friend.

I consider myself to be a fairly tolerant guy but those woods are definately holding me back until autumn. I've had enough of that poison ivy and those mosquitoes for this year. How bad were the mosquitoes anyway? Where did you find the dime?

If you are open tomorrow, I might be hitting an old park nearby. Very large park, dates to the teens. If you're interested, let me know.

BTW, nice dime. I haven't found a Mercury dime since the one at the woods, coincidentally. Good luck!
