First Seated Coin

[mike l]

And it's a half dime :yes:. Got out to the farm today for a team hunt with Steve and Don, had a blast playing in the mud. Lots of flat buttons and also got a 1879 Indian. The half dime is 1839. Keep on Diggin' all :beerbuddy:

WTG on getting that 1/2 dime, they are small. Also :congrats: on getting the IH. Nice that you were able to get out in January.

Awesome finds you made today Mike!! Had a great time hunting with you and steve. Does the half dime have a o mint mark on the back? All I found was 3 buttons and one 1900 dog tax tag It was that crumpled large flat thing we thought was a button. If i can get my camera working I'll post it.

:congrats: on finding that little silver in that big field :congrats:
It's worth the 20 lbs. of mud on your boots to get one isn't it?
Mine was in a corn field too but had a hole in it. I still like it!
erfect10: Good job!!

HUGE congrats! Can't beat an 1839 for you first seated! I found my first 2 last year (both dimes) 1887 & 1888. Hopefully I can find an older one this year. :grin:
