    Seated's, 3 cent piece,Indians

    Hi Folk's
    Finally getting crops picked in my part of the state. The boy and I hit a field that I had pretty good luck at in the fall of 2007. Managed to find a few keepers this time around also. Found 3 seated dimes 1841,1857,1891, four Indians 1896,1890,1887,1898 and my first ever silver 3 cent piece 1853, this coin had been on my to find list. Thanks for looking.

    Wow, Mike good job. See your profile says CZ3d. I was curious how the 3 center sounded to you?
    It is sure on my want list too. Good luck, hope we get a few more hunts in before the big freeze.

    I think I need to move to Illinois and hit some fields. Between you and Merf, you guys find some great old coins up there. Congrats on those beauties.
    -MM-

    Hmmmm......
    I'm starting to see a pattern here.

    Illinois + farm fields + guys with four letter names started with "M" (Mike / Merf) = OLD COINS!!!
    Oldest coin - 1700's Spanish silver piece of 8 reale
    Oldest U.S. silver - 1833 Capped Bust Half Dime
    Oldest U.S. copper - 1847 Large cent
    Civil War best finds:
    *NC officers belt buckle
    *CSN Confederate Navy Officer button
    *Eagle Sword Belt Plate
