You better be "seated" for this one
This past week I was able to collect a total of 10 boxes to search through. They were a combo of square and flat boxes from various banks. One skunk box and the rest produced various amounts of finds. And yes, I have found my 1st Seated half!! I can't believe it, my previous oldest find was a 1933-s walker and this blows that out of the water for sure! I was thinking that one day I would hit it big with a barber or something cool, but this made me freeze as soon as I saw the outilne!. The coin is very worn, but you can still see the date and mint mark. A 1843-O When I saw the edge of the coin in the roll I thought it had to be a walker as they are sometimes thinner then the bens and 64's, etc, but this one was way thin. I truly think that it was in circulation floating around for years to get this worn! I will never forget the day I found this special unique find! now if I can fill my 1970 I would be grateful! Please enjoy the photos!
