Well, I can mark another coin type off of the list.

Well I went hunting the other day for the elusive seated silver. I know this area holds some and my mission is to find it. Well my mission failed today, but I did find my first shield nickel. It is a 1869 and is in pretty rough shape, you can barely make out the date. Along with the shield nickel I picked up a 1925 wheatie, a couple round balls and this A.J. Tower raincoat button (1910-1930's I think). All in all a decent day, but the mission continues.

Don't you love it when you cross one off the list? Kudos! If you are in an area with Shields, you'll be digging a Seated soon. Keep us informed.
