The woods gives up a bent Half Dime.

[Merf]

I hunted the woods for 3 hours today. Only a couple of mosquitoes which was nice.
I found the Merc and about 10 feet away I got a faint signal and found this Half Dime about 6 inches down. Also found one wheatie.
Sure good to find some old silver. The HD looks like it was shot possibly.
My oldest coin to date. Too bad it is bent.
What rotten luck Eh. Best luck---Merf

Bummer! That was in pretty good shape, otherwise.

Wow, pretty cool find. You know, it almost looks like a bullet may have done that. Maybe it was in a leather pouch that got shot...or something?

Awesome finds, congrats Merf!

What a shame. That thing is in awesome shape otherwise. A bent half dime is better than no half dime I always say. Great find.

Sweet find Merf. You have a nose for the old stuff. Yeah, it is great to find that really old stuff. A little bit of a shame that such a nice looking coin got mangled. :P

That bent coin has a rip in it as if someone shot it with a rifle.

Makes me sick to see that dime bent. It was a great looking dime.
