A couple "V"ery good Hunts

Here's a group shot of my last two hunts. Last weekend I found the designed button, Crotal Bell and 1853 Seated Dime. Today I found a 1906 V nickel (MY FIRST!) And the Barber dime in the same hole...nice little spill. Todays site was pretty early, but I'm pretty confident it was hit hard. The signals were very far and few in between..but I did manage the little coin spill under a thick barberry bush. The ground was pretty frozen up early this morning. But I have a backhoe of a shovel....so I didn't have much trouble. Thanks for lookin folks!

I believe the buttons age to be around 1830's Benedict & Burnham, manufactured here in CT.
