Went back to the old mill and looked for the hard to find stuff. All the easy stuff has now been found with not many signals but iron left. I started in a area that I have not worked much yet and after finding lead and some scrap I got a bouncy 12-41 12-43 with iron all around it and out popped a VERY WORN 1917 Merc (#41 FTY). That was the only coin I got for 2 hours of hunting until on the way back tot the car which was WAY on the other side of the mill. As I worked my way back to the car I got a cool medical pin a cool watch fob and 3 wheat cents. I finally got a 12-44 that was choppy and deeper. It turned out to be a 7 to 8 inch 1943 Merc (#42 FTY). I stopped after that and had to get going to go look for a lost ring for a couple. I went to meet the husband and with in 10 minutes I found his wife's lost ring, a beautiful 14k white gold cluster diamond ring. He insisted that I take a reward and gave me $40 for finding it. That made my day!
