A little silver

drodda777 · Apr 26, 2009

I had an hour between the raindrops today so I thought I would get started on a new yard. The home is from 1877 so I thought it might have a few goodies. It did not take long to realize that my research is paying off once again. I found a couple wheats, 1918, 1920D and a 1926 Merc dime. I also found about $2.11 in clad and a old pair of fingernail clippers and an old key. Can't wait to hit this place hard.

This is my 13th silver coin for the month of April.

That 1926 mercury dime looks to be in really good condition for the front side anyways! Nice finds! I bet you were pleased! Research does pay off!

Thanks CJH,

I love finding a silver coin first. It gives you enough adrenaline to hunt the rest of the day with little to no signals.

Thanks Freak, This is new to me but I think my 20 years of Surveying and doing the property research is being put to good use in the new hobby.

5 of my 13 silver finds have been Mercs. One of my favorite coins also.

That is what I love about private property hunting, You don't have to worry about someone else finding your spots. You can take your time and get everything.
