Tenderfoot
The sun was shining and the temperature was about 35 degrees. I decided to get a little bit of detecting in before dark. I walked 10 feet out my front door and started poking around. After about 5 minutes, I got a bottlecap/nickel reading and pulled up a 1940 nickel. I started scanning again and a few inches away from the nickel I got an iffy reading in the 80's range of my VDI. I decided to dig and pulled out this beautiful 1940 Merc. My first silver find as a detectorist. I was squealing with joy. My neighbors probably thought I was insane, but I don't care. My XLT is finally starting to pay for itself. Thanks to everyone for posting your great finds. Cruising this site is now one of my daily routines.
