Got my second Merc today! (Video Added)

[Brett]

Went for a little lunch hunt at a park with my Dad today and scored a 1943-S Merc on my second target! The first was a crusty Zincoln. The Merc was maybe 3 or 4" down right next to and slightly above a bent finishing nail. I was getting a one way signal but it was sweet enough to dig. Lately I've been digging a lot of nails but I've also been rewarded now with two mercs and a silver ring recently. BTW: I was using my new 6" Detech Excelerator coil and I don't believe it would have been possible to locate this dime with a larger coil. So far my first two mercs have come using this coil

Nice Merc, they sure are pretty coming out of the ground. Many more to come for you I am sure.

Gosh I hope so! I'm starting to look at all of these "trashy" areas differently with the small coil... that's for sure! HH Mike!

Not as purty as my first one, but I scratched my first so this one being non-digger-scratched and an S-mint make me VERY happy

Thanks JDD!! One day I'll shower myself in silvers like Captn_SE Dan hopefully!

Yes I'm LOVING this coil so far! It takes time to cover an area, but if I come away with something good it's all worth it. If these coils were a tad more economical more people would be buying them and finding out they are great to have in their arsenal! HH Gregg!

Thanks Vision Quest! I just use my Nikon S600 in Close-Up Scene mode and snap it about an inch or so over the coin. My lighting is not the greatest, or it would be a little less yellow, but it does the trick. I usually then crop it and reduce the image size by at least a factor of 3 or more The S600 is a great little camera, but the video mode has a little to be desired.

She's gorgeous, Root! Nice job!!!

Very nice job on the silver! That mercury dime looks beautifull!

Sweet Merc!

Good luck,

Great job finding that Merc Brett. That nail was masking it for maybe 50 years, but somehow you sniffed it out like a silver bloodhound. My DFX couldn't produce a tone ID or even a positive VDI number on it.

Way to go on the merc!!! Nice job on the video too!

You just may someday, Root! Congrats on your Merc!

As long as my Pro coil keeps rewarding me, I'm keeping it on my machine. It's just too good a coil to not be using it..

Yo Brother congrats on your second Merc, and how cool to dig silver on your 2nd target. Keep those sweet videos coming.
