Capped bust dime so smooth you could ice skate on it !

[Goes4ever]

went to a bean field again tonite, 1886 map says there was a house there, first coin was a 1923 wheat, then I got a nice high tone between two iron signals, I was running two tone ferrous. I kick the stubble away and less than an inch deep I see a super smooth silver disk. I was thinking maybe a worn seated but it was my first ever capped bust dime. Man this baby is S-M-O-O-T-H !!!!!!

but I am not complaining, It has no date, but I know it has to be at least 1837 or older, beating my previous oldest silver by at least 37 yrs (1874 seated dime)

then I got an jumpy nickel signal, one scoop of the shovel and I see a red disk........1870 shield nickel.

Not a bad lil field hunt that only lasted a lil over an hour
