Well I did it again I can't believe it... in less than 60 seconds of turning on the detector BAM 1890 seated liberty dime! I can't believe in 20+ years nothing... then in 2 days I get 2 of them buggers!
I got out and hunted the same stretch of tore up road and sidewalks found ANOTHER seated Liberty Dime! I should of quit there (48 degrees with 40mph winds!) and because for the next 2 hours nothing... but I'm glad I didn't... I started to leave and then I popped out ANOTHER Barber dime this one is an 1907o in awful shape. just like 2 days prior...
the coins that have been coming out of this site are in bad shape because of the chemicals they use in making roads and sidewalks not to mention the chemicals that they used to use before roads, when these coins were lost... that would be called manure and urine (from the horses)
My other find was from yesterday... its a Sinclair oil watch-fob... Sinclair Oil started in 1916 and is still in business today. I thought it might be gold because it came out of the ground pretty much as you see it in this picture... it failed the 10k gold acid test... being it weight out as 1/2 ounce... I'm sad... to bad its not gold! LOL maybe some day I'll find me a golden trinket!
