That's definitely it! Except mine is the Mickey Mouse version. At least I know what it is now. I wish I could narrow down its age. Thanks a million!

I have been going through some of my finds from decades past and came across this strange object. It is made out of aluminum and has Mickey Mouse on it and W.D.P. (Walt Disney Productions) Google Lens suggests that it is might be a tube squeezer or roller for rolling up tubes of toothpaste...

I just tried it. I could log in with no problems.

Beautiful Merc! Congratulations! Is the date 1919-S?

Thanks for the useful information. Since this forum no longer has sponsors or advertisers I think it would be perfectly fine to name the dealer.

p.s. That War of 1812 that I won in one of your contests still holds a proud place in my collection, Jared! It's a beauty!

This is a mic drop post! That site has been a gold mine for you! It seems you find spectacular relics every time you go back. So much incredible history! The trade silver is especially eye-catching. Simply amazing! 👍

Impressive! That is a nice pile of silver and the year is only half over. My silver count has gone down significantly in recent years. I have found exactly two silver coins so far this year, a Merc and a Washington.

That's an amazing find, Don! Congrats! They are rarely found with a metal detector because they produce such a low signal. Still on my bucket list!

I had always been a Lesche user until my brother bought me a White's DigMaster for Christmas several years ago. It has held up WAY better than the Lesche diggers ever did! Best of luck with your search!

I just tried to log in and didn't have any trouble at all, but of course I am not in CT.

Welcome, locator! We're glad you joined us! (y)

Very cool White-lined Sphinx moth! They are big moths that behave like a hummingbird. I saw one flying around our flowers a few years ago.

Congrats on the Liberty Cap, Dan! It's a coin that we can scarcely dream of finding here in the Midwest.

I am envious! A Trime is one coin that has eluded me. They sure are tiny. Congrats on the old coin and the Colonial cufflinks, Dan!

That's a sharp looking Matron! Any idea on the age of the stick pin? That is a neat find also. I love the keg tap too! If only it could talk! Good job being persistent in those tough conditions!

Nice! And it cleaned up well enough to see good detail and a clear date! To my eye it definitely looks like 1803 as the 1805 had a slanted 5. Congrats, Roger!

Howdy from SE Illinois! How do you like your Equinox 800? I have one and I'm still trying to get accustomed to it. There was a learning curve coming from my reliable E-Trac. I have only detected in Wisconsin three times; once in a large park in Baraboo, another time in Black River Falls...

That is a great find, Dave! Rarely is a Shield Nickel dug that has a legible date! Did you find that with your Deus II?

Hi Digger_O'Dell! Sadly, Facebook Groups and Instagram are slowly replacing metal detecting forums. In a way, we're lucky that this forum still exists at all. Even most of our moderators seem to have disappeared. I'm not casting blame on anyone, I have been lax about posting as well...
