I went out to an old house from the 1890s today. I wasn't swinging more than two minutes before I got my first signal.
The E-Trac showed it was at 6". So when I got to 10" without a peep, I filled the hole in. When I re-swept the hole, the target was still there, only this time it pin pointed about 4" off the hole. I dug a new plug, scooped out some dirt and there in my dirt pile was a silver dime. I immediately saw the TEN CENTS on the back. Ok, at least a Bartber. Then I cleaned the front a little and saw that I just dug my first Seated coin, An 1890 Seated Dime.

About ten minutes later, I dug a 1943 Washington quarter.

Going into this season, My #1 Bucket list coin was a Two Cent Piece. I Got one this week.
I then made my #1 bucket list coin a Seated coin. I got one this week.
My new #1 bucket list coin. A $20.00 Gold Piece. LOL

Just squeeked in there by one year. Still a seated tho. Don't you hate those signals that throw you around for a while? "It said 4" and I'm already at 8". Where is is?" At least this time it gave you a silver when you finally found it.

Great find, I recently had a Merc do the same thing to me except I filled the hole in twice before I actually found it. Nice job. WD
