Congrats. I've never found a silver roo or a merc in my lincolns, but I did find some foreign silver form 1829 in my lincolns once.

Dimes mixed into the penny bag is always a nice find. I have found hundreds of dimes over the years,but no silver yet.

Congratulations on finding a silver

I believe my only silver in cents was a British sixpence. Already had it in my British collection, but you better believe I put it in a 2x2 and marked it as found in a cent bag, including the date.
