Congrats on your first seated coin, I'm still waiting for mine.
Thanks fellas, the only other thing i found there was a very good shape square nail, it was one of those iffy signals the hit me 46 two ways so i dug it... next signal about blew the sunrays off PERFECT 13-44 all way round!!!! This dime was at an amazing 4" the ground is very hard and rocky on a little hill top
It was encrusted with reddish dirt/clay all i could see was a little of the wreaths on the back i was expecting it to be a Barber (which i would have been completely happy with) so i put it in my shirt pocket, made sure it was buttoned up and poked around for a few more minutes and couldn't stand it any more, had to get to my folks...
After unloading my truck i get to the kitchen sink, put in the drain stopper and let the water wash off generations of dirt when the water rinsed off the obverse all i could say was its a seated its a seated everyone thought i was nuts it was an amazing feeling and believe me i've needed anything positive right now... i passed it around and everyone started to understand.. took out the red book and she is worth about 50.00 or so, boy we (USA) used to make BEAUTIFUL coins!!!! thanks for all the congrats fellas its really appreciated!!!!
