His weekend has been great! Yesterday I found two rings and a silver St Christopher cross. Today, started out slow with a few bullets and a busted copper ring that's soaking. I got fed up with my first site, so I moved to a spot I've never been to before and after about three hours hunting, I found a Merc, Barber, and a seated liberty and one IH. Didn't realize what I had until I got home and cleaned them up.

The IH is soaking again at the moment... The date looks like some kind of error reading 18967 or 18965. I can't tell does anyone know about the IH and any errors on them? Thanks in advance! Hope y'all had a great weekend hunting!

That's great!, I've been fortunate enough to find one seated dine earlier this year.
Such a great feeling, congrats! !

Congrats on your first seated! Last year of issue too. Always nice when you pull up seated. I'm at the point where I only need the seated dollar to complete the set. Found my first seated half dollar last year and first seated half dime this year. Nice find and congrats again on your first seated dime. I'd work the area real hard as you evidently found an old spot. It's a lot tougher in IL than it is here in NY.
