Found down by the river........next to a rock, not a van.
1834 1/6 Thaler

OMG That’s the first thing I thought about “in a van” lol That was great. That is a gorgeous piece of silver [emoji1360]

My first silver was a cub scout ring in 1977 with my compass Rm 6....the fire was lit.....

I have a silver cub Scout ring too I wonder if it’s the same?

My first was an 1877 CC Seated Dime.

Man coinboy i’ve only found one seated Dom and yours is a 77 CC Being your first piece of silver I don’t think it gets better than that

Same here. When I started in 1970 silver was very common to find with a detector. My first was just a 1963 quarter, and I found 12 more on that first hunt at the beach.....along with at least that many silver dimes. Half of all my finds in those early years were silver and wheats.

That must’ve been some virgin ground

It was a coin spill three silver quarters and two wheat pennies in my back yard!!!

Lol that is amazing the way you can walk out your front door your first time and hit something like that lotta y’all been spoiled lol

An 1876 seated dime, in a sidewalk tear out, somewhere around 1984

US that’s on believable your first silver being a seated. My first 8 reales was a sidewalk strep!!

Mercury Dime (pre-war I'm thinking 1937). It was the first coin I found in my own yard the first time I took my Musketeer Advantage out. "Hot damn" thought I. "This is one hot machine!"

Five years later I found my next silver coin.

1902 Barber dime with my Compass Judge II. Immediately drove home to check my coin book to discover it was worth a whopping .65c.
