After dinner decided to go back to streetearout and I notice another street tearout next to my old street tearout, the contruction crew were still working and covering the trench . They told me hurry up hunt it before backhoe moves all the dirt, so I did first target was 29 /31 and black disc come out , I had to put in pouch, because back home was working towards me, black disc was a 1860 S seated dime and found what I believed is copper powder flask. Going back tomorrow.

Awesome Seated Dime save! I wish they took old streets down to dirt around here. Seems like they only take 3-4” of asphalt off to get to the brick or old cement surface, not all the way to dirt. Congrats!!

Cleaned up nice. What did you use on it? Any silver I find when I am in Arizona looks like that too.
