My first silver coin!

[daveoster]

Over the weekend I detected an area of a park near Lake Superior where they allowed camping in the early 1900's. Well it payed off because after being there for about 10 minutes I dug a 1912 Barber dime (no mint mark) that was about 3-4" down. The coin looks to be in real good shape. What an exciting evening!
