Hello everyone!

I took off a half day of work today. The weather was super nice! My daughter had her first SoftBall game of the season today ~ it was an "away" game in Albany Oregon ~ an hour North from where we live in Eugene Oregon. I haven't done much detecting up there so my wife & I took off several hours before the game ~ she sat at the parking reading a book while I detected. The park was pretty clean, but I did manage a few goodies ~ 1942 Merc dime, 1941 Wheat cent, old pocket knife, and some clad.

The Merc dime is in pretty bad shape ~ lots of rim dings. Oh well, it's silver! I took pic's of it before & after I cleaned it up. This is the 17th silver coin that I've dug since Jan. 1, 2009!

Thanks for looking!
Neil
