Welcome and congratulations! It is a great feeling each time you find another first. The merc is a beautiful coin and is such a thrill when you see it come out of the soil. Being that you are in N.E., you are sure to find many more.

Good luck! .............HH...........for more first's

BOTH FINDS WERE FOUND ABOUT 10 FEET APART ON BACK TO BACK DAYS AT A BASEBALL FIELD MY COMPANY HAD CLEARED OUT. IT HAD RAINED THE NIGHT BEFORE SO THE GROUND WAS GIVING STRONGER READINGS THE SECOND AFTERNOON. FIRST OLDER COINS I HAVE FOUND YET BESIDES SOME WHEAT PENNIES. CANT WAIT TO GET OUT THERE SUNDAY MORNING OR TONIGHT FOR ANOTHER GO.
