Way to go, as you hunt more and more with your ACE 250 and find more silver dimes, you will learn to recognize the signal for silver. It is a GREAT sound and when your machine locks on a dime signal and you hear that special sound, you will get goose bumps. LOL
GREAT find and I know you will have many more GREAT finds with your ACE.
Finding that one dime gives you the rush to tirelessly hunt for another six hours after you find one, and yet if you find nothing else for the rest of the day you'll still go home happy.
Johnny said it right, one merc and it's on for another few hours and the overlapping gets really tight. Beautiful merc, my favorite coin to find. You're looks really great.
Congrats! That dime has a LOT of relief to it and is in impressive condition. I did not find my first merc dime until March, 2007. Can't remember what year, though.
