Silver coin on the beach ! And getting creative with Sea Glass.

[Trezurehunter]

Made the 50 minute trip to a Chicago Beach this morning. I managed 41 coins, and 1 of them was a 1945 Merc ! Also picked up 23 pieces of Sea Glass. Can you tell what the design is ? If you guessed metal detector, your right ! Most of the glass was green so I guess its a Garrett ! Used my trusty Fisher CZ 5 on this outing.

I figured it was either a metal detector or that you've been watching too much World Cup!

Nice work finding that on the beach, it was eluding all those detectors for so many years until you got there. I was going to guess Florida also, lol

Nice finds, funny post, and sounds like a great day out -- congrats on it all!

I was going to say it looked like a woman passing out! Probably because she couldn't believe you found a Merc!
