One Little Merc

[Carolina Tom]

I hope that the rest of you have been doing better than I have. I went with Smittyman on Saturday morning, we were done by 1:00, as the tailgate of the truck broke, and our equipment was locked in the bed. 80 mile silent ride home...

I got out on Sunday and looked around a bit, I was able to come up with a few things. It's been a month since I found any silver, so that one lone Merc was a sight for sore eyes. Here is what I got:

- Harmonica reed.
- 1954 Wheatie.
- Broken junque broach.
- 1940 Merc.
- 2 modern bullets.
** I get lots of trash and clad, but leave that out of the pics.

I swear I had a good time, even though I didn't find much. Really I did...

YTD silver coins: 10

Thanks for looking, and best of luck to you on your hunts!

Keep digging brother.

Man where do you keep finding these Great places. I bet P@tch was involved in that permission. It kinda looks like one of his minus the dime.

Congrats on some nice finds

I'll trade ya every single coin I found in the last week for that dime! LOL

Have faith!

A little silver always saves the day, even if it's a lone Merc. There are hot streaks and cold streaks. In the end I bet you'll still end up with your usual 70 to 80 silver coins a year. I remember last year for the first few months I actually had a lead on your as far as silver coins. That didn't last.

Good luck my man.

I'd be happy with a Merc

Nice hunt, a bit of silver and copper! Congratualtions!

 

[Loco-Digger]

Nice to see you post again Tom. I have had a few hunts that I never posted. Where does all the time go? Congrats on the Merc and sorry to hear your hunt was cut short.

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Nice finds! Congrats!

Those of us who find just clad, salute you!

 

[Captain Caveman]

Congratz Tom! 10 YTD is not bad, a lot of folks would probably be happy to claim that many. By the end of the year I'm sure I will be jealous of your totals. And always remember, the next swing could be a ______________ (<-- you fill in the blank!)

 

[Scrappy]

Ok here's the deal. Take that Merc and put it in a dimly lit room with another Merc. Play some Led Zepplin and put a bottle of corn squeezin's in there. You'll have baby mercs in no time...

Nice find

I should have been hunting YOUR convenience store, I probably would have gotten more silver coins!
Best of luck to you brother, and I will see you soon!

That's 1 more silver than I have this year It doesn't matter to me if its a spanish reale or a rosie, the edge of a silver coin in the dirt never gets old to me. I have a Victorian house permission that's given up a few silvers and I think its about time I took the Deus over there to beat up on that place some more.

NICE FINDS ,,,

 

[Darby]

Hey buddy, at least your digging silver! Look forward to you coming down here and teaching us how to dig coins! Hope you're having a great week!

 

[ScubaDetector]

One little merc, the next time you find another little silver. They all add up in my book. A keeper and something to be proud you found. Now go fetch another.

 

[Old Dude]

You have probably found more silver than I can say I have found by the end of this year. Don't despair.

 

[against the wind]

Love those Mercs,
Congrats

Tom that's the best one little merc I've seen in months and months, in need of some serious dig time myself

Great finds!
