I found an 1889 Seated Liberty dime made into a love token!

[40 Rounds]

After some severe weather two weeks ago it warmed back up and the ground was thawed enough to dig this week. I went to a pounded homesite that had an old tree removed recently. I found an 1889 Seated Liberty Dime love token near where that old tree had been!

Not sure. I thought that first letter was a “J” but you may be right, it could be an “H”

Thank you! It was sure a surprise when it came out of the ground. I was pretty excited about finding a Seated Liberty dime and then when I saw the engraving on the back I was over the moon!

I'm hoping that someone will be able to help with this script.
Either way it's an awesome recovery 👏
