I had a Red Book in my car, but kept hunting for about an hour- enjoying the anticipation of not knowing the value . I had a feeling it was something specialOriginally Posted by coinnut link=topic=6647.msg77878#msg77878 date=1312683619

Very nice coin. I notice that it was vertical in the plug. I know when I dug the standing liberty it was vertical and drove my detector crazy. I had a heck of a time just pin pointing it. Great find, and in amazing shape. <:

Just a spectacular seated dime, Tana! I am very happy for you! A find like that would make my year! I wouldn't sell it but that's just me, I'm a hopeless packrat. It would bring a smile to my face every time I looked at it.
I'm not sure if I'll ever find anything that cool but I'm going to keep trying!
Congrats on the wonderful find!

8/ You're right- I bet that's why it was all over the place! I'm pretty new to this... (2 yrs) I've prob missed quite a few coins on their sidesOriginally Posted by Mudder link=topic=6647.msg78149#msg78149 date=1312850111
I tend to dig just the good solid signals, even if they are prob pop tabs or zilcolns. Could be gold rings or IHs! I need to learn my V3i better... keep meaning to read more and try some different programs
Thanks! It's my second one ever And still haven't found a Barber :-\ Lots of mercs though!Originally Posted by agbkyle link=topic=6647.msg78156#msg78156 date=1312850479
Thanks Tony! I see your goal of the year I am a hopeless packrat too. I've never sold any of my MD finds or any of my arrowheads from 20 yrs of hunting eitherOriginally Posted by Tony Two-Cent link=topic=6647.msg78170#msg78170 date=1312851961

what a rush ! Congrats on the old silver and history !!
If at first you don't succeed, get the Government to Bail you out !
nice one tana! i have the same coin but yours is nicer. i cant find the link but i thinki that was one of the first coins out of the new orleans mint. i think a year or 2 older and it would have been a bust. congrats. willy
Sweet find , love them Seated coins thumbsup01

Beautiful coin Tana well deserved find. That plate with a name is very likely a old charge plate for a dept store or someplace similar. That is the way they looked you presented it like you used to do with a charge card and they made an imprint.

Thanks, this is only my 2nd 1800's silver - the other is a seated dime (1877cc). It sure is a rush, makes you want more lol I love the large cents, only found 2 of those as well (1820 and 1833) I love the old stuff... Good luck to you in your next hunt!Originally Posted by BillZ link=topic=6647.msg78535#msg78535 date=1313069717
