Went to Camp Silver today, the 100 year old, 50 acre kids camp. That's the detecting name, not official name, but today and recently it's been Camp Clad after earlier giving up more silver over the last year. Today I spent several hours digging clad, after clad...I had to be home to get the kids fed so I gave myself about 15 minutes more...got a good signal and dug, dug and the digger got stuck, maybe a root or rock, so I push harder and it gave way and everything flips up in the air...as the dirt flies up I see the clear, tell tale silver column down the middle of the reverse side of a beautiful Merc that seems to be moving in slow motion and hovering in the air in mid-flip, about a foot off the ground. I think I finished yelling "Nice!" before it hit the ground. What a rush. Here it is...moved a little on the photo, but you can tell the nice shape it's in. Thanks to Earthworm, er, Earthworks for sizing the photo.
