First mercury dime, and first old coin spill!

[SilverPirate]

What's up guys only had about 30 min to hunt today and stopped by a road side park from the 40's. I found my first mercury dime with my new e-trac and also got my first older coin spill. The mercury dime was first and it's a 1918 S. I still had a signal in the hole with my Sun Ray probe and pulled out this 1924 wheat, and then this 1949 nickel.

Thanks for looking, SP

Nice spill ,it seems a little unusual teens Merc 20s penny and a 1949 nickel ,should have been a Buffalo . but good enough

My first silver coin was a merc too...worn worse than that.

Yeah the park was was built in the 40's, so it doesn't seem all that strange. I still find wheat pennies in circulation now, and you can tell that the merc and wheat are badly warn. I was hoping for a buffalo but the 49 came out instead. Lol

Yeah, there was tons of trash! I wasn't even digging the nickel signals but when I found that dime and penny I figured it was going to be a nickel.

Wheats are hard to judge by, i got a 1920 wheat in a box of Pennies the other day, and it was in good shape...Thats great the Merc still has a date on it, the ones i find that worn are practically dateless

Great Finds!!!
