Sweet dime digger. It took me 11 years to find my first one.
Congratulations on yours.

Nice.


Sorry i missed your call. I had a 100 coin (century) day myself, but no silver coins. I did have a 10k plated ring and a couple pieces of silver jewelry.
Laters,
Juan

That's great! I'm still waiting for my first silver. I've found all kinds of clad, even a nice gold ring, but still no silver.


COIN-grats to you!
