Half Dime and Carson City Dime

[mikefromIllinois]

Hi Folks,
I have not had anything to post for over two years. Beans are out and I hit my old standby fairgrounds I have hunted for about 8 yrs. some days I find nothing and think of not going back, but the crops are still in my other places. Glad I decided to go back, they say a place is never worked out and I think maybe it's true. Today I found a 1876 CC Dime and a 1847 half Dime. This is my third half dime and second CC dime from here.
Thanks for looking

Very nice couple of Liberty Seated silvers!
I would still love to find a half dime myself!

Thanks. I am sure your day will come on the half dime. It took me over 35yrs. to find my first.

Thanks. It's been a few yrs. since I found two seated in one hunt.

Wow excellent finds. It must feel really good to go back to a site with diminishing returns and pull a cc in great condition and a half dime! Not easy to find coins! Congrats!!!

My first seated coin was a 1847 seated half dime that 1876 cc is sweet...

Great coins Mike. I am apparently North of where you are, have been hunting for 30 years, and still have not found a Half Dime. That is one of the few coins left on my bucket list. Congrats !

Thanks. It does feel good to still pull old coins out of here. The way it's been lately I would have been happy for a silver coin of any kind.

Thanks. This is the second cc I have found here and the other is 1876 also.

Thanks TH. From reading your threads I think you are North of me. Hang in there it took me over 30 for my first. You will probably find it where you least expect it.

Nice job pulling those two out of a place you have hunted so hard. Just curious, are those the only two keepers you came up with, or just the only two worth posting?
