Been on a major silver drought. Digging a house site and came across this beauty -- 1944 Mercury dime (no mint mark so Philadelphia). I was soooooooooo happy. :hello2:

Before that I dug a TWO 1944 wheat pennies (though I did not know their dates yet), a 1970 S quarter, and a Longwood key with a #1 inscribed on the back.

I will call this a GOOD day. Silver drought OVER!

p.s. also dug 3 matchbox type cars. recent stuff, made in China.Trump will put a stop to that. lol
