1853 seated lib. and more - Goodbye 'till April!

Went to a site of a revolutionary war battle in hopes of finding cannonball number five to go along with the four my friends dug this weekend. No dice. Not any battle relics besides a round ball.

EastCoasthunter21 and I ran all over the hill like mountain goats on a backbreaking hunt. I dig score an exquisite seated quarter and a few bits and bobs. I'm curious to the age of the bent oval gold-faced cuff link. Any guesses is welcome but I'm suspecting earlier 19th century. Enjoy!

Enjoy. This is probably my last post until April. I have a major exam approaching and the ground is freezing, so I'm signing off with hunts. Good luck and happy hunting

You'll be gobsmacked at the beauty of the St Lawrence and the Thousand Islands if come up this way. But make it in the good weather.

That is one awesome coin. Congrats. I'm hoping at least one seated anything got lost up this way for me to find someday! [emoji106]

Oh it's so beautiful up that way. I've spent some time in Alexandria Bay - one of the most beautiful areas I've been. Every time I go I want to move there! ...of course I've only been there in summer

Thanks for looking man. Yep, it's easy to just say 1853(or whatever date) but when you add up the actual number of years, and what it was like back then, it's quite humbling.

That is one awesome coin. Congrats. I'm hoping at least one seated anything got lost up this way for me to find someday! [emoji106]

Thanks, the condition is quite nice. I'm sure a seated or two is awaiting you...perhaps worn from a saddle bag and trade...but it gonna find ya!

That's a nice one Steve... Congratulations on another great find[emoji106]

Thanks a lot. A nice enough find that I figured I'll quit for the season while I'm ahead!

Great stories sir!!! Enjoyed reading all your post!! Us too are waiting for spring!

Thanks Basque - I enjoyed finding them as well! I'll be looking for your continued great finds this spring!

It's a cool link - need to research more when I'm done studying tonight. And yes, Winter lockdown has begun. Sigh...

Beautiful seated Steve!

Thanks, she's a beauty. Part of me almost wants to get it graded for S & giggles. I've only dug two Seated quarters and both have been exceptional - just must be the luck of the draw

Wow, she is sweet, nice detail.
GOLD and silver, nice! :-)
