Hi all,
I hunted one of my new field sites (former log cabin site, according to owner) last night as I realize my window of opportunity is fast slipping away. Parked the car, started some gridding and saw lots of pottery shards. :thumb_up: Soon got a good signal and popped out a dirt-covered dime. I was hoping for at least a Barber! Since the car was close I walked over and rinsed it off....1876cc seated dime! Huzzah!! I found my first seated just 3 months earlier, almost to the day, so I was pretty happy. Found a few relics and my first pipe stem. I'll be going over this site with a fine tooth comb for sure. What a fun way to end the day and love the field hunts! :happy3:

HH,
Michiganne

That's Awesome Anne! Sounds like you got yourself a real honey hole there! I was getting ready to post for the first time on the new forum and came across your finds. The seated dime looks beautiful-and of course I'm jealous as a seated dime has eluded me so far. Today, by happenstance, I stumbled upon an old lot that just had the hint of a driveway, slighty cleared and a flag pole which has me curious as to what this lot might have been at one time. Again congrats on your most awesome finds!

Nice-nice-nice! WTG Anne! That's one of the prettiest dimes I've seen in awhile, so sharp you could cut yourself - be careful! I'd frame that one and hang it on the wall for sure! Congrats again, and good luck if you go back! D

Thats an awesome coin!

Would you believe I've found only 2 Seated Dimes and both of them are 1876.

Of course...mine don't have that Carson City Mintmark!!!


Nice Digs,

That's a great dime Anne, good detail and nice patina. I dug up a 1885 that I think is nice, but yours looks better. Looks like you have a spot that will keep you busy for quite some time.
