Hi everyone !
Super excited ! Finally found my first Mercury Dime! I've found 9 Rosie's and one Barber. This is my 5th silver this year. Three dimes and two rings.
Hit two different parks today. the first park gave me $.3.95 in clad , a wheat , two hot wheels and a torch. Except for the igniter , the torch works.
