1883 Seated Dime!

Got out Sunday with several friends for some colonial cellar hole digging. It was a fun day but I didn't get my coil over anything earlier than the mid to late 1800's except for one little flat button. The find of the day for me was unexpected. I found a beautiful 1883 Seated Liberty Dime next to a well and cistern. Attachment 66597Attachment 66598Attachment 66599 This is only the fourth Seated I have found in 23 years. I love these little coins. Happy Hunting!

I think they stopped making Half Dimes in 1873, so yours must be a dime?

Either way it's a wonderful find, and it's in great shape! :yes:

:congrats:

Awesome seated! I don't think I have ever seen an 1883.

Congrats on the silver and to see Dave's slump continue in person :groovy:

Thanks Danny! Not only did I see the slump continue for another week but, to add insult to injury, he dug up a CLAD spill at the cellar hole! :rofl:

Yeah, it's a Dime. I don't know why I had Half Dime on my brain. I can't edit the post now. Thanks!

Dime , half dime, doesn't matter, Great find either way!:congrats:

Nice bit of silver there Donnie.

Congrats that's a sweet find !

A clad spill at a cellar?? Holy smokes!! I feel for him. That could be a thread unto itself. I remember my two partners finding coppers near a cellar...then I got a good signal 10 feet from the lip...it was a memorial penny at 5 inches. I almost cried :lol:
That's a good looking silver, Donnie! The woods in New England are beautiful! Congrats!

Pretty cellar hole. Always good to be out on the hunt. Nice silver too.

Really nice looking seated, congrats on a well deserved find!

Nice going Donnie!

Congrats, that is in awesome condition [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
