Hi Folks,
I see it's been 3 year. since I have posted any of my finds. I have been finding coins just not posting them. Been giving likes and commenting on others finds. Wife retired and since she's the one who takes the pictures and puts them up for me I guess it's time to start posting again. I het an old Camp meeting grounds on 10/27/2022 and found four pretty decent coins an 1876 CC Dime, a sharp 1867 Shield Nickel and two Indians a 1890 and a key date 1872 with full Liberty in the headband.
Thanks for Looking

With finds like that, I hope you start posting again. Congrats on your great hunt !
The Mrs. takes excellent photos. Your 1876 CC dime is beautiful. Too bad the date & mint mark are so hard to see. :laughing7: They really didn't skimp on date detail back in the day on those coins. I wish all coins had such distinct lettering & detail. CHEERS!!

Thank You. Stay with it and you will find one. I have been detecting 50yrs. and I think it took me over 10yrs. to find my first. Hopefully yours will come sooner than that.
