MY FIRST SILVER COIN!!!!


I found my first real silver coin! A 1942 mercury head dime! There is no mistaking it. It's the shiny one in the middle. I also found another ring. This one is marked "sterling" on the inside so I know it's silver. I also found a game token and a boy scout tie clasp.
I've mention before about the new pennies. Check out the 'half penny' on the right. It's only a 1991 and already eaten half gone.
I found the tie clasp in Clarksville along with $1.12. The rest of the finds were at Audubon Elem. School.

Nice find! It's interesting about the non-silver coins. (Evidently our pennies are destined to disappear no matter what)!
