Took my daughter to the local park on my last day of vacation to use our new toy. Pleasantly surprised to find our first silver coin, a nice looking 1926 Mercury dime! Nestled beneath the roots of a large tree for probably the last 75 years or so. 
I'm hooked.

Always nice to see those little white discs come out of the ground

My first Merc was a 24-P found at a local park. Definitely hooked me too. Good luck
Congratulations on a wonderful find.
Great coin! And always such a great feeling, finding something that has been hidden for so long! Love this hobby!
Oh how I LOVE this hobby!
Freedom isn't free, we must protect it. Many Thanks to all those in the U.S. Military and Law Enforcement, past and present, for taking lead in that fight.
