Plowed fields finds 1883-H

[Mike95inNJ]

Went to a farm site I occasionally hunt this morning. Got this 1883-H Canadian dime. Wish it was a seated but I'm certainly not complaining. Also some kind of a cartridge or something that says THEB & R. MFG Co New York. On the other side it has increments up to 5.0. Now that I look at it closer it appears it could have been a change dispenser with the slot across the top for a dime to slide out of and is about the size of a roll of dimes. Now I just have to find all the dimes that were once in it. A nice buckle, some bullets and pottery shards. The bottle is Major's Rubber Cement New York USA. I also found some other iron things I have'nt really looked at yet. I'm thinking about going back in the morning again. Went to the beach afterwards and got a silver heart earing,a junk ring and around $3.50 in clad.
Happy Hunting, Mike in NJ

That's it Gypsyheart. Thanks. I see where I made my mistake reading the name. That's a good sign for me since you now dated it for me. 1883 dime and 1890's dispenser.
Thanks again,
Mike

I love what you're finding with your ClassicII.

I'll bet that dime made a perfect tone. Good luck!
