I went detecting today during my lunch break at the 1950 home where I found the wedding ring I already posted about. I found a lot of clad, about 10 wheats, a 1951 rosie and then I found a very old coin that blew my mind! A Capped Bust dime!
It is nearly slicked out and I put my personal mint mark on the front side...but I am very thrilled to have one. I now have 2 CB half dimes, 1 CB dime and 1 CB half dollar. Notice how it is slightly larger than the Rosie...kinda cool. The spot used to be a farm field 75 years ago and the town that it is part of was founded in 1818 and the home is about 8 blocks away from the center of this town so I imagine a farmer or worker was doing their job 150 years ago and it was lost then.
Thanks for looking! Jared
