2 first 2day

[McCDig]

Had a first today in Baltimore in digging a seated dime. Other notable finds: ring (gold?), fancy part of a pin-on decor, R. R. & Co. flat button ( this may be R. Robertson and Co. of Attelboro, a fired miniball, thimble and unknown.

Wow that dime is uncirculated. Nice job

 

[vpnavy]

Nice finds! Thanks for sharing...

 

[Loco-Digger]

Nice finds McCDig, that seated sure has some crisp detail. That button is awesome. Is that a real pearl in it? I am curious as to the design on the face of that ring.

Love finding seated liberty and you found one very nice dime.

 

[texjim]

Great finds..

 

[against the wind]

Yep,, that seated dime is "THE FIND "
Congrats on an excellent hunt.

Cool finds! Any chance of getting closer obverse and reverse photos of the dime? And of the buttons? I love it when coins come out of the ground in such great shape.

Congrats on your first Seated Dime. It is in great shape. I think your "unknown" may be the pull handle off of a small box, like a jewelry box. If it were bigger, I would go with a dresser drawer handle.

 

[McCDig]

thx th. The unknown is about an inch and a half long; you may be right that it's to a small drawer. Another Club member found an 1877 seated nearby.

 

[McCDig]

Thx aj. Will follow-up with that. Yes, it seems this one may have dropped by 1880.

 

[McCDig]

Thx atw. Was wondering if I'd ever dig one, but now I've had the privilege of taking dimes from 4 series from this park.

 

[McCDig]

Thx texjim.

 

[McCDig]

Thx donin. The dime was down 9 to 10 inch range. As I was fishing for it, saw the flash of silver.

 

[McCDig]

Thx L-D. The script design on the ring has worn down, perhaps it was personalized. I may have an answer today as to what quality of gold this is.

 

[McCDig]

Thx vp.

 

[McCDig]

Thx relic lover. Clad for the hunt was a quarter and a dime.....would rather dig relics!
