My first post as a newbie

[Denver]

Just started metal detecting a few years ago, I found this merc, not with a detector but my hands on this old dirt road in Florida where I grew up at when I was a kid, probably 7 or 8.

Welcome to the forums Denver, I hope to see a bunch more finds!

BTW- nice crisp, clear pics! If you size them to 800x600 or less, they work better for most.

Welcome to Tnet Denver. Nice find on that Merc. How is the weather out there? Have you had snow yet? It must be hard to hunt this time of year. Great site here and plenty of helpful people. Look forward to seeing your future posts.

And nice old silver finds!

thanks for the comments, and I will resize my photo's. This was my first photo post, so it's kind of a test. The weather here in Denver has been mild so far, even in the mountains, but next week we're expecting a storm. And for the clarity and detail of the dime, I'm using a Fuji S700 Finepix camera, which creates AWESOME closeup pictures!

Welcome, Denver!
I too am new to the detecting scene, since September,2007.
I find it to be fun & relaxing, with the chance of being able to find money & other valuables in the process!
What more could you ask for?

Enjoy!
