Two Silver dimes, and "play dime"

Nice cool morning out in the woods today, a new section I have not hunted before. As you can see I had another fun filled day of shotgun shell head-stamps, I believe 19 total, and a bunch of modern bullets.

I've been in a silver drought since July 30. It was nice to see the 1919S Mercury dime come out of the ground and after some clad, wheat pennies, and other stuff And I found a nice 1911 Barber dime!

In between the two silver dimes I got a signal that I thought could've been an Indian head but out popped what I thought was a silver Trime or maybe a halftime..... no such luck LOL. And it up being a play coin made of aluminum.

Good day overall, thanks for looking and happy hunting.

Congrats on the Duo. A silver Rosie or a Seated would have given you a Trifecta. Why did you stop?? lol
Congrats on the double silver day.
