I'm not shaving until I find a Mercury Dime!

This is my first summer of metal detecting.I've found silver quarters,old nickels,wheaties but not a Mercury dime.I've been concentrating on old ballfields and old schools.It's only a matter of time.I dug a 1953 Rosie at an honest 10" today with my CZ3D.That's the deepest I've ever found a coin.Summer is going fast so I better get busy,otherwise I'll look like the lead guitar player for ZZ Top.

Wanted new hunting partner. One that DOES use soap and preferably who does not eat beans before a long drive to a site. Reply to Treasurenet in care of Kindafoundabuckle.

I'm not exaggerating the depth of a find until I dig a lumber era date coin at a lumberjack camp!

The jacks quit this area about 1910 and so far all I'm finding are deer hunter drops post-1910.

This is a great idea...i've been coveting everyone's mercuries. If I stop shaving though I think my hubby might start to object!!! LOL :o

I'm not having ... until I find a ...............wait!............Scratch that!

We should see a starting pic of the fuzz, and an ending pic when you find that merc.

Good luck! Maybe we will read about someone spotting bigfoot metal detecting.

Cologne is on its way. Obsession and polo to give you a little variety...
 
Re: I'm not shaving until I find a Mercury Dime!

I found my first half dollar today.A 1974 Kennedy Half.This isn't a Mercury dime but it is a first for me.My whiskers are really getting itchy.I was on my knees in a park digging a coin and an old couple came up and put some change in the frisbee I put my dirt in.I think they took one look at me and thought I was panhandling.Can I add that change to my coin total for the day?

Day three with no shower >:(

I didn;t change my underwear for 2 monthes on a bet.I won the bet and the underwear went clunk when they hit the bottom of the garbage can.HH...Panz

Sounds like a good plan. If you are really serious then take a picture of you holding up the merc by your beard. ;D

I would say that a merc should not be that hard of a goal but you do live in a more remote part of the country. Also, it seems like when you really try to find them you can't and when you are just "hunting" they show up.
