First large cent and bust dime

[bblaha]

It permission to hunt the yard of a house from the late 1700's. No one has ever gotten permission to detect it but because I was a kid they welcomed me in with open arms. Found my first large cent and my first bust dime! It's an 1835 large cent and an 1827 bust dime. I also found a 1939 merc in great condition, it's almost flawless. After finding my first gold ring I didn't think this week could get any better but it did! The trash here was crazy. I must've dug 100,000 holes lol. Mostly just odds and ends of tools and farm equipment. Thanks for looking

I have to agree with the above posters, those coins especially the LC looks like it was never in the ground! Amazing shape for DUG coins

I reallly did dig these. I thought the merc was best condition. The date is barely even legible on the LC

And jm 17 and don't have a job. There's no way I could've bought these coins. What could I gain from buying coins and then posting it here? Nothing.

This happened before with another post I had and those weren't even nice or old coins so I cleaned them myself cause I didn't care about value and everyone started saying I bought them. That just doesn't make sense. This is to discuss your finds and learn from other people. That's the only thing to gain here. Knowledge.

.......nobody said you bought them

Guess I read it wrong, the "DUG coins" thing made it seem like he was saying I didn't dig them. My apologies sorry.
