    Father's Day AM Hunt, 2 Coppers, Seated

    Happy Father's Day All, I got to do my thing this morning as it's MY day
    One copper is wiped and looks as though it was wedged into something....but the other one is dreamy
    The seated 1840 dime isn't too bad either.
    The button is old pewter with a design. The clad quarter was a drag
    Thanks, Drew

    Congrats, Drew. One of the large cents at least is real good shape. I thought at first you were saying the dime was the bad one... It's just a little deformed. Still a silver.
