Don't remember the year, 194? Merc. Found in my great aunts yard when I was 9 or 10 with a cheap radio shack detector. I found some really cool stuff with it though!
 
Too long ago for me to remember.
 
1946 Quarter. My heart leaped.AT Pro and an old school yard.
 
Key date 1921 Mercury dime no mint mark, found in the front lawn of a school built in 1917. HH

1943 P War Nickel. Found it in a park mixed in with a hotbed of nails. My Ace 250 had no problem picking it out of the patch. I miss that little yellow guy. Visited the same park not too long ago with the Deus. Left with a 46 Washington and a 1903 Indian Head. Not bad for 25 minutes.
 
1943 D merc :D! It's my lucky coin, and it's brought me even more silver while serving that role :D.
 
Wow, I don't remember.....I started metal detecting in 1971.....over 41 years ago, and with over 200,000 coins found.....Back then over 90% of all the dimes, quarters, half dollars, and Dollars I found were SILVER......"The Good Old Days"....LOL.......
 
Heck, I can't remember yesterday! I really have no clue but probably was a Roosie.

HH!
