Wanted to go someplace to MD but it was getting late so I decided to detect in the back yard. House was built in 1963 so I always hope to find some silver that was lost before people began hoarding it. But then again, I seem to forget that there was an old farm here before the house.... evidenced by the harness buckle. Also found a blade from a hay sickle and a harrow blade, which got me thinking old. My Deus got a good signal and reading of 92. Dug down...aw maybe four inches and saw the edge of this pretty white silver. Was getting dark but I could pretty much make out that it was a merc dime. The date is 1940. Going to be hunting the yard tomorrow if it doesn't rain early.

If using your cell phone, try turning off the flash prior to taking the picture. Just use the room light. The camera will adjust for the proper settings for the picture better than using the flash.
Nice finds.
