Well it's been a while since I've had time to go metal detecting,* but got a little lull in between beans and cotton. After they cut the beans where I found my 1840-o seated liberty dime I figured other was time to get over there. We'll, I was put there 3 minutes, and my first good signal other than iron was a solid 38 on my minelab. Looked down cause it was doing the double chirp each time I swiped, and saw the edge of a silver coin! My second seated liberty dime, and to boot it also was an 1840-o! My belief is still true. If ya find something good your first ten minutes out, you might as well go home cause I swear everytime I do I find nothing good for rest of the day. Well I went back next day, dad came with me cause he was getting frustrated at me for getting some good stuff. 20 minutes in he hits a 38 on his minelab, but he pulled a mississippi infantry button. Made in new Orleans.* The Haynes an Scoville I THINK? Can't remember. Anyway, ready for winter to hit this hill hard. Thanks for looking, I've rambled on enough. The messed up one I found 20ft from the good one. Same year, same mint.
