Yesterday morning I met up with Dave & Noah for a little door knocking. We hit about four houses including the house that I scored at Big Time last week.

Dave ( Daddy Digger ) was on fire all day. If you haven't seen his post already, check it out. It's EPIC! :envious:

I managed 5 silvers, 1 Buff, 1 Indian (99 FTY) and a very cool WRC maltese cross.
About 3 ft. from where I dug that seated dime last week, I pulled out a very sharp 1898 barber dime.

Thanks to Dave & Noah for making the last hunt of the year very enjoyable. We all did well!!

Another spectacular hunt for you, Don! Being a coin person, my eyes are drawn to that gorgeous 1898 Barber Dime. Wow, it is sharp! Amazing detail!

The WRC cross is wonderful too. It definitely appears to be hand made. What a cool piece of history!

Now get out there and find that 100th Indian!

:congrats:

I know of several very old farm areas that would be ideal door knocking sites. Some old towns I've been through could be spectacular too. Mineral Point is a good example, many original houses seem mid 1800s. Get out by Elkhorn for the old farms. Let me know when you decide to come up.

I love that Women's Relief Corps cross. Is it silver? What does the back look like?
That dime looks like someone walked out the mint and dropped it. Huge congrats, Don!
