This coin put an end to my 71 day silver coin drought. I am glad that is over. Now I just hope that I don't start another drought. LOL
This is the 14th silver coin that I have found, also its my 6th merc. :icon_pirat:

Please don't let Goio's and my incident yesterday stop you from going out and enjoying our hobby.
Just keep an eye & ear open to your surroundings. HH

I always say......if it's going to be one coin, let it be a nice merc! That one has a nice old date on it, and I love the character of the ones with a little wear on them! Congrats!

Hello Ricardo, nice merc, to a newbie like me , a merc sounds wonderful. I havent been detecting even 71 days yet, but I know any silver is good. Good for you.

I just found a 1920 merc on Sunday. Ended my long draught too. Nice because silver is silver and sounds good. Thats funny that you posted a topic about the thugs last week. While at the 1836 farmhouse hunting last week a young teenager approached me (leaving me space to react) as I carry myself in a hard corps manner after being in the corps for 23 years (not to brag here) but people can look at me and know I am all business. Well he kept back about 20 feet and I gave him the fight or flight look. It just comes natually for me after have been in 2 wars. He as me if I had any work for him and I said I didn't live here. He left and walked up the street a bit then turned around and headed down the other side. A few minutes later a car picked him up. The whole time I was in the bushes watching this jerk. My car was in the front unlocked with my wallet and camera inside. I mean, this place is a really safe town as my grandmother never locks her home. I don't know what this sucker had in mind. I locked my car and was a little surprised for a while. Anything can happen out here in this crazy world. I'm lucky I didn't have my back turned towards him. Who knows. He looked like he was up to no good.
