Nice going, Rae!

For kicks listen to the clang as they drop onto a hard surface compared to a clad dime. I love the sound of silver!!!
 

coins made in 1964 or older are silver, dimes quarters, halves and dollars. halves and dollars still had some silver in them until 1970.
 

I wear a mercury dime ( silver ) that I bought years ago at some coin shop ( I used to make coin jewelry outta not good coins...so this is so exciting for me..my first real real finds even thou its not that old but heck, I DID IT... I am so very proud of myself...now I WANT MORE
 

WTG on your first silver coins, congras and hope they are the first of many many more. Good luck!

Smiles!

It is awesome to get your first silver, as a matter of fact it is awesome to get your second silver, as a matter of fact it is awesome to get ANY silver............WAY TO GO............................Yeah to you, and your M-6...........Tom
 

Thank you thank you... I am still on cloud nine...omg I need a miners hat with light so I can detect at night.... I am so tickled to death over this....how will I react when I find a really old coin.. I CANT WAIT
 

Congrats on the first two of many to be found, heck im still looking for my first one. I have to sit around and watch my father pick one up, one after another and can't seem to find one yet, always fun to see them pop outta the ground. Next one will be a Merc! HH
 

Finding your first silver is always the hardest. . . I'll bet you find more before the weekend is up.

HH this weekend!
 

"now I want more".....I can feel it from here....Big Congrat's on the silver!!Love it!!

Congrats on the first silver! I hope its just the first of many for you. And who cares if they aren't old...you've gotta reach one goal at a time, bud.
