I think I finally may be on a roll. I have found tons of clad this year, but not one silver coin. For that matter, I've yet to find a wheatie, buffalo, 1/2 dollar, dollar, etc.

I decided not to go up to my new spot today. It's really hot and humid. So I went out into the yard instead, which I've done may times before. Well, the first signal yielded a 1985 nickel. And then the second signal rang out. I dug a plug and there she was. A 1929 Mercury dime!! (I swear I've checked that part of the yard numerous times). I was ecstatic!! Last Friday I found my first silver (1941 quarter), and now this today. Woohoo!!

TGIF!!

Nice merc! Sounds like you are getting the hang of things. It really gets fun when your practice, research, and hard work starts to pay off. Keep up the good work!

Thanks! yes, it has been a lot more involved than I ever thought. I assumed the machine did all the work, and all I had to do was dig and enjoy. LOL!
