Default 2 day's off,did the happy dance!!!!!

So I got out for some good hunting time the last two days,and i found my first real silver,whoohoo!
I went to my in-laws house,it is a early thirties brick home that was used years ago as a daycare center in the town of Carthage,Tennessee.
Well,kids being kids,they tend to drop stuff lots of stuff.
I worked the back fence area by a huge old elm tree and scored a 1912 barber dime(my oldest coin to date),then just a little ways down the fence line i hit a 1945 mercury dime also a first!Also found a tiny jewelers hammer marked with a small #4 stamped on it , guessing that is it's weight?!
The front yard today produced two quarters '54,'46.And dug one hole that sounded really iffy ,instead of the usual bottle cap a popped out 4 wheaties
2 '35's,'38,and a '39 wow! Also got about 2 bucks in clad and some various kids toys.
I will be posting my finds pics in a couple hours thanx for looking...happy hunting!!!
