My first Mecury dime...

[Leon]

Been detecting for a few months now. Started with a little Radio Shack unit.
Found a 1958 Washington Quarter. Been using a CZ-5 off and on, but know silver again until today.
1925 Mercury Dime

Had a good high tone at 8" deep

Always a thrill when you find your first one! Good going!

Hey Leon, good going. You will be surprised. It starts out slow and just keeps going. Just don't get disapointed or down, and just keep going. The persistance is one of the biggest factors, that and a positive attitude will get you lots more....Lance

Leon, my first silver was a Mercury dime, too - in an old cemetery. Didn't dig up any bones, though Nice find. More is coming for you.

Thanks all...
About presistance Lance, Me and my ol' lady were talking about that the other day.
While using the Radio Shack unit, with no discrimination, I had one of these days:

I ask her," Is this presistance, dedication, or insanity "...lol
a few Good things about that day was the sunshine & the fact that I didn't have to dig too deep to get to any of these targets
I'll keep plug'n...HH!
