Wow! That is a sweet find and appears to be in Extremely good condition. Can you add any additional information to the story on finding the coin? How far deep was it and did you clean it all?

I love this site! You guys keep me motivated..I will be officially joining the ranks this spring. Waiting for my metal detector to be delivered.

Re: 1841 "O" dime

Be sure you hold that puppy with one finger on each side, touching only the edge of the coin. I'd certainly get it slabbed. Looks to be Mint State, although I can't see how many scratches and/or bag marks because of the quality of the pics you posted. Could grade as high as MS-65. A 1993 Blackbook of coin prices lists the dime at $1,250 in MS-60 (the lowest uncirculated grade). Careful with that one, and I'd certainly think about getting it professionally graded and slabbed.

All the Best,

Buckleboy

Re: 1841 "O" dime

that is very nice, I got an 1840, but it's a little more circulated, and has no "O". Very cool coin.
