Beautiful coin man! Thats worthy of a happy dance lol ..hh rick in mi
The coin was about 4-5 inches deep on a sight bank in a yard. My buddy with me said I promised him a cap bust that day. I said if I find it does that count? And 1 hour later I find this 1834 DIme. My other silver I found this year is a 1900 barber. So this detector has found 2 silvers this year and the E-trac has 15.

Super nice find! If that coin could talk what an interesting story it would tell. It's probably been laying in the ground for about 175 years by looking at the condition it got lost early in its life. That's definitely a trophy find.

Fantastic find!!
I went to a coin shop to see what the grade of the coin would be. I have no intention of selling it. The young guy looked at the coin and went to the computer and told me that did I clean the coin? I said no. he already knew I found it metal detecting. I said maybe the dirt caused it to look cleaned. He said no it had to be cleaned before it iwas lost. Total crap. I used water and rinsed it off for 5 seconds. Did nothing else to the coin. The coin looks in increable shape out of the grounds. He tried to tell me there were cleaning marks on the right side of the head. Bull shit there is nothing on the coin. You can see in the photos there is no scratches on the coin. He then asked me where I found such coin. I told him in indiana. I beieve this coin is near AU and once he seen the value on the internet he tried to screw me on the coin. He said it was worth 75 to 135 due to its "cleaning". If it wasent cleaned it was 250. That experience made me mad.

Those people who own and run pawn shops are like that, anything you have is pretty much junk and anything they have is totally awesome and valuable. I'd bet a million dollars that if you would have sold him the coin and the next day I would have went in to buy the coin he wouldn't say the coin had been cleaned and would want top dollar for it. I won't even go in those kind of places anymore because every time I do I walk out frustrated.
