Hello!

We had some cloud coverage today that brought down the temp enough to make me wanna go detecting! I waited for Kip to get off of work and we headed down to the Mill Race downtown. We stayed there about an hour and decided to go elsewhere. So we headed to the U of O to try our luck. I dug three clad dimes, one clad quarter, one nickel, five memorial cents, and a 1942 Mercury Dime.

The Merc dime is my silver coin find #36 for the year!

Thanks for looking!

Neil

Congratulations on the Merc dime Neil!! :icon_thumright:
The Mill Race is a tough place to hunt with all the metal in the ground
but we still manage to find a silver now and then. ( I got a '64-d silver Rosie tonight)
The food at the Jail was good... wish you could have made it there.

That's a really nice merc, Neil. It was really nice here yesterday, too. High overcast all day with temps in the low 70's. Perfect digging weather if I could have snuck away. Hopefully tonight!

A single merc would make anyone happy, especially if they have never found one before. Nice merc, Neil :icon_sunny:
