DAMN!!!!

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".......but most likely a common silver Roosevelt dime.

Happy Hunting everyone!!

I think it was a 1946 Rosie.
