My last day off on my 5 day detecting vacation. Spent 8 hours detecting with a buddy today. Dug my first seated dime (1855), an 1880 Indian, a bunch of wheaties (11), a few clad, a few buttons and a musket ball. It was a good day. :grin:

This is definitely a find that belongs up on the banner. Do you think you could post some better photos of it?

Sure, I can post more this evening. I would love to have it on the banner, but please don't include for coin of the month. I already won in January and I want others to be included to have a chance to win.

What do you mean arrows in the dates? Aren't they all like that? I guess that's a dumb question huh? lol


* i just Googled it - Arrows were added on each side of the date of this US dime to distinguish that these dime pieces were reduced in weight from 2.67 grams to 2.49 grams.
