Well guys I had a awesome hunt this morning and got myself 2 first. I went to a spot full on iron (of course) mixed in with white shells, so I decided to put the 6” on the 800 and run it at 7 recovery speed. Well it worked out great because I got my first Seated Half Dime a 1840 O Seated Half Dime!! I was freaking out. Then getting very tired from the shells, falsing and roots I hit a sweet signal and got my first J Hook. The Lord shine upon me today :)

Worth every penny. Thanks for looking and sharing my happy moment [emoji1317]

The Seated Half Dime (W/O Drapery) is one of my favorite coins , cause my 1st Seated coin was a 1839 Dime & love that they are different in the drapery was added in 1840 , (that year had both with & without FWIW ) , I have bought a few examples of that type of 'Seated Coin'.

The J -Hook 's are a rare find these days & very Cool.

P.S. Well you don't have to worry about that part of the Truck anymore. lol
