    more 1850's church silver

    that 1850's church was good to me again today,it gave up some more oldies,not sure this old heart can take much more,got so excited I thought I was going to have to take one of my little nitro's,hunted for a little over 3 hours and found two more seated dimes 1853 and 1873,little bit later I hit a 1863 IH and got a 1851 3 cent silver in the same hole,about 15 minutes later I hit another IH another 1863,two fatties in one day, on the way to the car I got another IH 1866.
    everything I found today was between 6 and 8 and I think I will be doing the happy dance in my sleep tonight,,,,thanks for looking and HH out there.

    Re: more 1850's church silver

    Fantastic, I responded to the other post about the 3 seated coin spill. My questoin is did any of the seated found today come from the spot that I said had more seated? Super finds, you got yourself a real hotspot.

    My Answer !
    they all came from a 25 foot by 75 foot area right behind the church,I would venture to say that is where they had there white sales and the kids used to play.

    Seriously, you're killing me. What awesome finds and I think I'm coming down with a bad case of coin envy.


    What a spectacular site.



    Great hunt!
