3 Seated Dime Spill + Conn Copper!!

[bergie]

Yesterday I got a phone call from a very fired up Skunemonk (Jeff) who was at an early 1800 house his extended family had rented -- "Dude!" he says - "I just started detecting and got 3 seated dimes all together! Then right nearby I got a Connecticut Copper!" He found these in about 15 minutes and needless to say, we are going back as soon as possible. He's been having some computer problems, so I picked up the coins, brought them over to Earthworks and his new camera, and here's the result. The 1886 is spectacular. The Connect. Copper is 1787. Congrats to Jeff on these great finds.

Very Sweet. It's cool how you guys all got together and worked to post his finds. What's also great is to see this stuff dropped around 1890. Shows you that 1700's stuff was still in circulation until almost the 1900's.

A seated dime spill and a Connecticut copper is one fine day in anyones book. A coin spill that old (with the condition of the 1886) and a colonial copper might be worthy of the banner.

THanks for the feedback. I know Jeff will see these soon and hopefully post back. I have never found a seated coin myself, so I know what an insanely good find this is to get three at once. To clarify, two were in the same hole and one was about a foot away, so had to be dropped together. The Conn Copper was about 20 feet away, so a different drop from a different era.
