Got out for a few hours yesterday. Hunting an old boys school. Didn't find much but did find an 1800,s coin spill found two seated liberty dimes 1845 & 1889 and a 1888 V nickel in the same hole. Also found a 1921 wheatie and a handful of assorted clad.

First dime was at 4 and second dime and nickel were at 7.

Also found what I think is an old room key fob and what I think is an old luggage tag but not sure.

Also this pin with the M on it. I'm wondering if this is a pledge pin? Maybe for Mercy ?

so happy to end my non silver loosing streak I was on.

Sorry not very good pictures.

Excellent finds Chris. Those seated are sure nice looking coins. Your RR tag is a great find, I have found several from the same RR. The 1888 V is a good one also. :congrats: on breaking the silver slump and also for getting into the 1800's
