Carson City Seated dime to go with a side of IHPs

[toasted]

They've been doing some excavating on a section of the seated field in preparation for a new building project. Needless to say, it has helped me recover some goodies from an area Ive been pounding since January 2016. 1876 CC dime last weekend and now an 1877 CC, 1888 IHP and toasty 1904. Feels good to be saving some history from being buried forever

Yeah, thats probably where the silver dollar or gold coin went. There is still a big pile there but not big enough so they had to haul some dirt out as the area is about 12" lower now

I wish. I have found just about every type of coinage from seated on up in this field but it does not have anything older. Over 100 indians but not one large cent so they were definitely not in circulation by the 1870s-80s. Spanish silver was demonitized in 1857

I predict you find Spanish silver this summer

Nice salvage on the dime! Any silver before 1900 is a "day maker" find. Congrats!
