Sure. Rain makes the ground more conductive and a better receiver for machine signals to the ground. Nice looking merc. Congrats

Pretty Mercury,, put that sweet thing in a coin folder.
My first Mercury was a 1923, I still have it,, with the date of find and the location marked on the folder I put it in.
Congrats

Yes, water (rain) is a conductor of electricity so your detector will get a little better or deeper signal after a rain. Congrats on your first Merc.
