deershed,
Either dropped after heavy use in its first year or after only a few years from its minting. How did you do, I'd say Great! Good success with finding lots more older coins........................63bkpkr

Not to be out done by Dad,Stacy's been busy.

The day after I found the Barber quarter Stacy found a 57 Washington.

The buffalo (no date) was found in the same hole as the Washington and the 42 Jefferson was found in same hole as the Rosie.

On the 10th.he found a 26 Mercury.

Geez, what a haul! :headbang:

The Barber looks at least a grade of Fine, appears to have a full LIBERTY. I'm not as knowledgeable on Seated coins, but I do see a full LIBERTY and a fair amount of detail in Liberty's lower dress on the obverse. Great finds!!
