Default Color Me Silver!!

OH WOW!!! I found my 1st silver today. A 1940 Mercury Dime!! I went to a old home that had been torn down. I also found 2 Wheat pennies (1949 & 1946) both in really bad shape.

I also found a coin I can not ID. It has a woman sitting on one side, and on the other it almost looks like a man? it is a 1921 coin the size of a 1/2 dollar very corroded and hard to read. I have it soaking in oil right now. Update!! I just found my unidentified coin on Ebay of all places. Here is a link to my other coin.

1921 Great Britain One Penny NICE COIN - (eBay item 190160416959 end time Oct-13-07 14:48:43 PDT)

I am so pumped, Beale.

I agree with dyrty- hit that place hard. Merc is just the beginning. Make sure you double check the hole, could be more. Congrats on the silver!!!!
