Got out today and hunted a park that is around 90 years old . Not more than 20 minutes in I got a iffy high tone at 8 inches . When I got down to 8 inches I lost the target :dontknow: . I kept probing around for it but nothing . As I started to put the dirt back in the hole I saw silver ! It is the most beautiful detailed Mercury dime I have ever found . It's a 1929S in VG + condition ! Then about 20 feet away I got another good target at 6 inches , a 1944 Wheat cent . The other good finds were two kids rings , both plated . Total clad for two hours was $13.14 ! :headbang:

After everything, that is what it is all about to me.

Finding rings and things are wonderful enough and may even increase one's bottom line.

But, finding a grand old coin that is in great shape, well that is what trips my trigger.

Very, very nice one indeed!
