Silver #80 on the year and it's a first for me!!!!!

Got out tonight and hit a soccer field near my house ( I went the other night and pulled a watch and a silver ring)...........Tonight my first signal was a 39 on the Safari and I thought it was going to be silver but it turned out to be another watch in pretty rough shape. I kept swinging and was hitting a few deep quarters and got another nice signal that I though was going to be another deep quarter and cut the plug and saw the silver edge and thought oh a rosie.............then I realized it wasnt a rosie it was an 1835 Capped Bust Dime that looks like it was dropped yesterday. Worked around where I pulled the coin and pulled a couple old buckles I'll have to make sure I get back to that spot.

She's a stunner!! :perfect10:

Scott congrats on the capped bust dime, she's in amazing condition |:cheering:. Looks like another spot has paid off for you. :perfect10:
 
That coin would also be a 1st for many of us, me included. Very high on my wish list. It does look like it was dropped in mint condition. I haven't seen many capped bust silvers posted lately. Huge congrats on that recovery. Maybe next time you can get that rosie......
 
Wow wow wow :wow: It does look minty fresh lol

Congrats on such a wonderful find :clapping: It's on my wish-list too :)
 
congrats Scott :perfect10: , beautiful coin |:cheering: |:cheering:
