MY FIRST SILVER COIN!!! YES!! ALL HAIL THE ACE 250!

[PATreasureHunter]

Back at my great-great aunt's house today, for the fourth time. Each time I go there, it never disappoints. BUT.....today was the kicker. I pulled out my FIRST SILVER COIN!!! It's a 1943 Mercury dime. It was about 4 inches down, and the ace250 went crazy when it was being pinpointed. WHAT A RUSH it was when I pulled it out of the ground!! It's in awesome shape too, to boot. I also retrrived 4 more wheaties from that same yard, a bunch more clad, and some more what-zits. I feel that I have scoured the yard pretyt good now, BUT I will go back for at leats one more sweep. It's a great feeling when you find you first silver coin, and EVERYBODY on here was right - it came when I least expected it. Thanks for reading, and happy hunting to all!

Awesome Merc!!! Congrats to you. Your aunts house has been very productive for you. I was so happy to find my first Merc. That's one of my favorite looking coins.
It's a real hoot to see a nice clean silver coin come out of the ground.
GREAT JOB!!!

Congrats on the silver! I did the silver dance today too for the first time. Mine was a 1948 dime. It was perfect looking right out of the ground. I was soooo excited so I know how you felt. Sure would love to find a merc one day too!
