Went out for a short hunt in (yes you guessed it) a over grown city park. I found a small coin spill there on Friday consisting of a 1867 shield nickel and a 1864 Indian so I thought I would hit that area a little harder today. I first popped the V nickel (no date yet, still dirty), then a sterling bar pin and then FINALLY my long sought after seated coin!! This one happened to be a 1874, so now I can concentrate on something else like a 2 cent piece or a Reale.
Thanks for lookin’

Congrats, my friend. That seated is one you will never forget. I think you might pop another nice silver out of there before long.

I hope so!! It’s been good to me and Joe-Bro (Tnet member) and my buddy Jeff lately with 3 merc’s and pair of barber dimes, a seated dime, a barber quarter a ton of V nickels and some silver jewelry. The hunting is tough, what used to be a nice rolling park is now rocky woods with stonewalls and blow downs everywhere but there’s good stuff in there still.

Congratulations Joe! Seated Liberty is some of the finest coinage ever minted. It's always a good idea to checkout the (allegedly) hunted out parks, especially with these newer machines.

Congrats on your first seated. You will always remember the day. I found my first back in 1996 and can remember it like yesterday. The seated coin is my favorite designed coin.
