These finds were over a period of five days on the same property:
146 pennies
18 nickels
46 dimes
69 quarters
4 very corroded wheat pennies the oldest being 1919(if my eyes serve me correctly)
and finally the best find my first ever Mercury dime dated 1918
I was finding so much clad I did not even realize I had found the mercury dime and could not celebrate the moment, oh well, will just have to find another.
God bless and all the best hunting
 
Congratz . You're no longer a merc virgin. Bucket listers will now fly past. Soon it will be your first barber. Then your first seated. Then your first bust, etc.... Within a year : Any gold coin newer than 1850 will bore you to tears ! :laughing:
