Hello!

Well, the weather sure has turned nice ~ 70 degrees and sunny! I met up with Ron tonight after work to do some metal detecting. We had a good time! I dug a 1918-S Mercury dime, 1902 Indian Cent, a old toy car, a few wheat cents dating from 1927 to 1954, and some clad.

Just a few minutes after I dug the 1918-S Merc dime Ron came behind me and dug a 1920-s Standing Liberty Quarter just inches away from where I dug the merc dime! How'd I miss that one?! DANG!! Oh well ~ I'm very happy for Ron ~ such a cool find!

I took pic's of the coins before and after I cleaned 'em up. This Merc dime is my silver coin #59 for the year.

THANKS for looking!
Neil
