a few recent old silver recoverys, most recent being the 1781 Reale found on Oct. 20, the reale and 1839 seated have sadly both been plow struck, capped bust came from a wooded area and is in better shape

Nice silvers there. Is the capped bust a dime or half dime? A perfect spur is tough to find.
 

:thumbsup:Gives them character, sweet recovery.

Keep Swinging!
 

capped bust is a dime, and i accidently attached the spur pic to this post haha, though i also found that recently as well
 

Killer finds. Great coins and that spur rocks. I would accidentally include the spur pic about once per month just to rub it in on the rest of us. We don't even want to talk about how long it has been since I got a good old silver. :icon_thumleft:
 

Great old silver!! I'm still looking for my first capped bust silver.
 

Awesome finds, I would love 2 find all of them.
 

Incredible finds ! Man , I feel like such a chump when I see Cappy's and early seated's , and Spanish showing up here - and I don't know
where I can go, to even have a chance at a merc or a wheatie ! ( sorry I just had to melt down )
 

well, capped bust is definitely on my wish list. great digs!
 

Awesome finds! Hey, include the spur pic as many times as you like, you have bragging rights!
 

The coins are nice, but the real beauty is the spur. Seems like I have every piece of a spur imaginable, but not one that is complete. Yours is an excellent CW era example.

Cheers,

Buck
 

I would LUV to find ANY of the above!!!!! CONGRATS.... HH
 

Wow! NICE FINDS! Would love to find some silver that old! My oldest is 1876.
 

Those are three epic recoveries!
 

Great looking stirrup a rarer item dug up whole, congrats on the silvers also.
