You know that time in 1877 when you are out in field with a pocket full of iron nails and dimes, and you suddenly find you had a hole in that pocket? Somebody did back then! Congrats, Sub

I think like that every time I dig an old coin. Thats when your discovery bridges time. THAT IS the reason I love detecting. You connect to those who were exactly where you are today. I often wonder if they ever thought this far into the future and if they ever imagined a "future dweller" would find that coin.

I've found some pretty nice stuff here,it's been ploughed the last 3 years,it was decades since it was.

Nice dime - a bath in apple cider vinegar would probably finish the cleaning.

Congrats on a nice Silver find! For your info, Alcohol is pretty good for removing stains on Silver and Gold and I have never had Alcohol damage or alter the coins or items.

Frank, i swear you were the person who told me to use apple cider vinegar for rust removal, specifically for my gold love token!

Actually it was not you Frank, oops!

Good job shining that baby up. One of my first coins was a 77 Seated. Good memories. Keep it up bud
