Yesterday's Hunt Scores A Seated Dime!
Met up with my buddy Micah to hunt a couple of old spots. The first spot was an old school that he had hunted before and dug some Mercs and a nice Walker half. Well he did it again and dug a few more Mercs, a Washington and another Big Walker! I found three Mercs, a Buffalo and a Red Goose token there myself. We took a break and hit another old school next to a very old church. A lot of the ground has been moved around over the years but we managed to find a small area that was producing some old wheaties. I went over by an old grown up fence row and got another wheat signal on the Etrac. I was happy to see a thin silver coin in my plug and as I was carefully cleaning the dirt off I was hoping for an old Barber. My excitement grew as I realized I was looking at an 1877 Seated! It's holed and worn thin but it's always fun to see that old silver pop up! We dug a few more wheats and Micah dug two more Mercs before we had to head home. We both had an awesome time getting out and digging some nice keepers. HH David
