Went out to the woods for a few hours the last 2 days and found a bunch of relics and old coins. I started off finding my 1st multi IH spill (2 in 1 hole), then a V and so on. Well eventually I got a bouncy signal that went from coin to iron and back to coin. I get tons of these signals and I always dig them. Well at about 4-5" I dug a cool stack of coins. I could tell that the biggest coin was a Barber quarter and it had a nickle in the middle and a dime on the top. Well It turned out to be a 1898 q - 1899 V - 1885 seated dime all in an old coin stack!!! Finally after 3 years of hunting I finally got my seated coin!!!! I also found 2 pins in the same area, 1 is an eagle and the other is of Uncle Sam, enjoy. I'm still pumped about gettin that monkey off my back!!!

In the video I make a fool outta myself when I realize its my very 1st seated, be sure to watch! :laughing9:

WTG Kermit, Congrats on your first seated.
 

I just have info abt. ------------ Congr. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! , ( looking for digger sunday - hand inj. )
 

congrats on your first seated coin but that bbq looks sharp!
 

Man. And I had to work today. I wish I was there to see you dig that spectacular pocket spill. Congrat's on getting rid of the "monkey", bud!!!!!!!!
 

Outstanding dude, awesome finds and awesome video. :thumbsup: Congrats on your first seated.
 

congratulations on the great first! still hoping i can grab a seated one of these days as well, awesome job! :icon_thumright:
 

Congratulations Kermit on getting your first seated dime.

Are you sure it is an 85 and not a 65? Compared to that 1898 Quarter which appears almost new when it was dropped it seems like that dime exhibits alot more than 13 years of circulation.

Seated coins are always exciting but to get it with that nickel and quarter is really special. That 1898 quarter is really sharp. Rarely see them in that nice of condition. Look forward to seeing it if you are able to get the corrosion off the front.

Those patriotic pins are also cool. Maybe it was a 4th of July picnic site?
 

congrats on the seated, like the uncle sam too.
 

Congrats on your first seated. Cool pocket spill!
