I had some time on Saturday to hunt back at the spot I found the 1833 Half Dime a couple of weeks ago. I started where I left off and the first signal was a nice Minie ball. Second signal was a 12-41 on the Etrac and I dug out an old dark silver dime instead of the usual wheat penny for that type of signal. As soon as I saw it, I had a good feeling it would be a seated. With a little bit of a rinse I saw I had an 1840 Seated Dime and even better that it's a New Orleans mint. I couldn't believe this was my second target. I got back to the search and found several odds and ends along with a few more dropped and fired bullets. I'm really liking my new spot and the only thing that would make it better is some good soaking rain to set in for a couple of days. HH-David

That is one nice hunt!
 
That's a great hunt! Silver and lead is hard to beat in my book. Congratulations!

Yes I agree! Gotta love digging them both in the same hunt
 
It just AIN’T getting better than that!! And it’s a -O- my favorite. Congratulations
Seated + lead = a great day
 
Sweet coin. I still need one! [emoji16]
 
Congrats on the seated dime and all the other great finds.
