Carson City Seated, Mercs and Indian Heads

[jkress]

Yep... I am taking full advantage of the week off and incredible weather. :yes:

Around 5:00 tonight I headed back to the park I found a Seated dime last night. First target out was an IH and a short while later
I was digging my way down to the 1877 dime. :happydance01: Just couldn't believe I found another one. After running it under water I searched for the mint mark and was even more surprised to see I had my first Carson City coin in hand.
When the 1916 came out, I waited for a moment before flipping it over... wondering if I could be that lucky? I wasn't.

Earlier this morning Dave and I went out for a couple of hours. This token and two wheats were all I managed during our time together.

Obviously I have a new favorite park to spend much more time getting to know.

Another seated dime :omg: you need to stake that park out and spend the entire week. Congrats on some great saves.

Thank you everyone. I am still amazed I added two seated coins to my collection from a park.

I wonder if they will let me pitch a tent there? :cheesysmile:

I promise not to go any further south than Delmar. lol :poke:



What does the CC silver dance look like??

They certainly don't teach it in school. lol



I'd be falling in love with that park too if I were you

Oh I have. I've been to this park twice before... just never hunted this section.



no doubt there are some more gems hiding there.

Thanks Darren. I sure hope there is more there waiting for me.

Another beautiful lady! :happydance01: That park is being good to you, Joe. :clapping: There will be more there waiting for you to recover. :drool: I do love the way the Indian Head cents come out from that soil so well-preserved. :smitten:

lol @ pitching a tent out there... I could totally do that myself- I'm already looking forward to retirement so I can MD full-time rofl

...I'm laughing because I have about 20 more years until I retire :crying02:

Joe, Joe, Joe... You won't be able to hunt it out in time. We are already getting the caravan together and we will all be there in 2 days. lol Great looking CC Seated dime and congrats on your second one :peace: But I don't know why you were suprised that they would come out of a park :confused: I think someone already told us where they are all hiding...not mentioning any names :angelic: :angelic: :angelic: lol If that '16 Merc had a &quot:grin:, it would have been an unbelievable condition one :shocked04: Great hunt |:confused:)
