1838 HALF DIME, 2 BARBERS, AND A COOL PIN.

[Vino]

Stopped back at the same spot as yesterday on my way home from making the donuts. . I was really hoping to find another button..
Well i did, lol. Just not the one i was looking for. .Did manage to get a few keepers though. .
The half dime was way down there, i had to take a pic of my pin pointer to show how far down..
This XP still amazes me...lol.
Anyway thanks for looking,
Were getting about 6inches of snow tonight so dont think ill be out for a little bit..

If its an authentic hand painted portrait on porcelain set in gold, you got a vote from me!
From your pics it looks good, but have someone look at it, perhaps a jeweller, they'd be able to tell you more, it's worth a shot!

That is one nice seated half dime, especially as it's such an early one. Any date on the draped bust large cent?

George neglected to say that he modified his pin pointer and it's only 4" long lol

That pin is in great shape! What county are you in? We're getting hammered here today too but it's supposed to be 62 tomorrow...

Vino I was blinded by the dime and didn't see the pin! I vote BANNER on the pin!

Gold and the condition makes it one-of-a-kind and worthy of that wall. Banner

Congrats George on some great finds! I whipped out the GMT on Wednesday to see what was hiding in my' yard and to locate the Gas and Water lines as the City is finally putting in Sewer Lines. I have long avoided metal detecting my' yard due to the many thousands of target signals and on Wednesday it was no different. It was almost impossible to Ground Balance the GMT due to all of the signals. While I have found a few coins in the yard in past years, I believe that the majority of the targets are trash and it is as if everyone in the neighborhood used this yard as a dang dump. I guess I am going to have to learn my' CTX 3030, so that I can weed out some or all of the trash and maybe score something nice from the yard.
