Finding lots of goodies with the Manticore but this one has been eluding me. Same M.O. as before, old homesite hunted it multiple times different machines multiple people. I know a site is never hunted out but....this many targets, only one explanation. Note the rust from a chunk of iron on the crotal bell. 1871 on the buckle., plain on the seated dime.

This hobby is full of surprises. A new machine is always fun, especially when it produces that kind of quality on ground you have been over before yourself, not to mention others too.

That's a great find
 
Went back and looked at the pic with all the various finds, nice even color to the eye. Except for that silver circular thingy, I would go put that back as it clashes with the color scheme……. 🙄
