Silver dime!!

[historicalgrbagecollector]

Hi! I decided to detect in the yard of the family's 1700s farmhouse and literally the second indication gave me this!! 1929 silver Mercury head dime. PRISTINE condition like it must've gone right in the ground.

I also found 4 wheat pennies (1937, '41, '44, and '53) and a quarter...from 2008 (😭).

This was my first time using the detector in the yard-- i have however used it in the woods many times for all the farm dump action (trash ). Beginners luck is real y'all!
