Third trip and even more early silver!

[HessianHunter]

Third visit to our killer site. Probably the last visit for some time. Scored another 8 silver coins today. I found the bottom row, my friend found the top. I got one more copper and he got two. Very happy with the 1838 seated liberty dime and another three trimes. It’s been incredible. Stay tuned for more. We plan to bring all of our coin finds from the site together for one large photo. I think our total is 23 silvers and about 35 coppers from this one site. Enjoy!

Holy trime! I have never seen so many! Are you in a field? What kind of site is it? Old homestead?

Civil war era trade site.

Holy Trimes and Trickels !!!!!!!!!!

In a decade on this site, I have never seen anybody hauling in Trimes like you are !! This is highly unusual ! I can't even give a rational explanation for this !? Anyone

Trimes were circulating heavily in the early 1850s as most other silver coinage, besides worn Spanish, was disappearing from circulation as it could be melted for profit. They all appear to be type I trimes(1851-1853) of lower silver content and in good condition. This was corrected in mid 1853 when silver content was lowered on other silver coins. Could be a gold dollar on that site as they circulated in fairly large numbers in that same time period. Ask me how I know From what I see, Id say this site was gone by the mid 1850s or so
