First silver of 2020

[McCDig]

First silver of 2020. Got out to Druid Hill Park for a couple hours this afternoon and dug modern change and a bunch of gaming tokens. I changed spots and dug a scratchy high-tone jumping into the 30s on the Nox. I was running Park 2, 5 tones and after removing 9 inches of soil saw this silver coin on edge.....an 1858 seated dime.

In the same area I dug this deep cufflink as well.

Thanks Jeff! Yes, the last three seated dimes I've dug have all come from this park....each in a different part of the park.

Thanks BLK HOLE. I was impressed with the Equinox when I saw the coin on edge at that depth.

Thanks Professor. The dime came from an area where we've dug Indians, a Barber dime and a minie ball.

Thanks HIGHSTRUNG. Silver makes those hours of listening to modern trash just melt away.

Awesome!! That park sounds like a great spot, I’m jealous (; old east coast parks are some of the best spots for old coin shooting. I’ve pull some great coins and relics from parks. Keep at it brother, happy new year!!
