Had a few hours to hunt some old wagon trails, met a fellow hunter for a while and then went to find another spot where i had better luck before. First find was this 1880s oil lamp hanger, I had a hell of a time digging it out from a root the size of my arm, then about 10 ft' away i got a nice 9" deep coin hit, out pops a nice 1840 seated dime, this is my 2nd 1840 silver from this spot, about 3yrs ago i found an 1840 half dime here among other things.

Very nice finds. The lamp hanger is really cool, the patent date makes it really sweet IMO. I have no seated coins, so that dime makes me envious. Very well done.
 

Very nice finds, love that seated and I really love that hanger too. Congrats, great hunt!
 

:thumbsup: Thanks for all the great replies, heading back there today to see what else pops up,
thanks again, Pro-
