A little windy and cold, but stuck it out for a few hours at my favorite spot, and managed 5 silvers, a 1920 buff, and 11 wheaties. One of the mercs is quite abused, bent and all scratched up. One of the targets was quite iffy, dug a deep plug, and saw it in the bottom, but when I was closing the flap, saw the edge of another one in the plug, making it on its side. Also in the plug was a nickel, and the threshold nulled when I closed up and rescanned. Pretty complicated, good thing I got the silver out of there.
a good day for silver

Great score, especially on the iffy sounding coin spill! :yes: Wow, that merc looks like someone tried to melt it on one side.
Very good hunt, Randy! thumbsup01 That dime looks like it has been probed to death. 
I have found a few with similar scratches, as if someone had been probing for the target with a screwdriver but then gave up. :thinkingabout: But hey, they are still silver pieces.

Congrats on the great hunt. I don't think you should spoil your collection with the horrible looking Merc. You can send it to me at my home for wayward silver. It will be loved! :cheesysmile:
