Got out and found 3 silver.Didnt have my phone to take pics but nothing was more than 6 inches,except one crusty zinc,I have no ispdea how that thing got so deep? It was like 8or 9 inches.
The slq had me feeling good and then I got the merc.I usually use my phone to blow up a picture on site so I can see the date,But no phone and I coulda swore it said 1916,so the hunt was over right then and there.Got home,it’s a slick wore 1918.Oh well,maybe another time.

Nice Silver finds! I had the same thing happen to me a while ago, dug up a Merc Dime with a somewhat worn date, looked like it might have been 1916 or 1919, and had the "D" mintmark! Back at the car with my reading glasses on, it turned out, of course, to be the 1919-D!
 
A very impressive outing Butcher, even without your phone. Congrats on the dated SLQ along with the Merc and War Nickel. Looks like you had a lot of digging. Trapper

Thanks trapper,yeah it was a lot of digging but a lot of fun too.Had a old guy tag along in his late 80s,he had a good time too,and was amazed on how ez the coins were to find.

Great hunt, congrats!
