FINALLY - My First Silver!

[MiniMe]

I finally broke Silver! Had to go all the way to Virginia to find it. Went down for the DIV's this past week and found this lil beauty. When I turned over the plug and saw this disc, I thought to myself, another zincon, as I was finding them earlier in the day in another field. Picked it up and took my nail to clean off the dirt and when I saw that silver I about flipped. Cleaned it off a little more to see the front and I wanted to scream. My fingers were flying on my phone texting my husband, I had attached pictures, but they were so blury because I was shaking so bad. Not in the best of shape, but at least I could get the date on it. This is not all I found at the DIV's, but will have to post them later. Thanks for looking, HH!

Love them Mercs. I never get tired of digging them. Probably because I don't find many.

Nice going, congrats on getting your first silver.
That silver is like crack, now that you have got the taste of silver all you want is more. (Wait till you find gold, it's a bloody disease.)
