Finally. My 1st Merc!

[scavanau]

Found this next to a cellar hole on an eroding ridge a friend told me about. Did not expect this after digging 14 modern pennies. 1926? Had a foot to go before it went over. Shovel knicked it a little.

Nice one, may it be a first of many

Ahh that feeling of finding something you have not found before is the best. I am particularly pleased when I find one. I hit a pocket spill of wheats and two mercs and I was stoked. Great work n good luck keeping em coming.

Awesome! It took me 18 months to find my first Merc. When you read the posts online, it seems like people find them all the time, and I was glad to finally be in the club. I've found more since then, but that first one is still special. Congrats on your first - I'm sure there will be more to come.

all Mercs are nice. got a '20 this week in AG to G condition. only worth $2-3_______________but it's still a Merc

 

[ironman123]

Awesome find. Hope you get many more.

That is sweet, congrats.... I would have to go down the hill and look around where the dirt is falling. Could find many more

By the way that pic looks he might have been hanging on for dear life when he lost it. good job finding it.

I never get tired of looking at Mercury dimes. Still hoping to get one under my coil. Congrats!

Congratulations on your first. The rest of them are down over that embankment LOL

Congrats! That's a bucket lister for me. I've yet to find one. That looks like a really cool spot there. Hope you find many more.

One of many more for you I hope. Looks like rugged search area to me.

Sometimes when you dig coins you get them in two different categories.

SS or Slightly Scratched

and

AG About Gouged

Happens to the best of us. Just glad it wasn't a 1916D!

Hope you find many many more in better condition!
