Ladies and gentleman please be ..SEATED

So after 31 silver dimes in old faithful

4 Rosies
12 Merc's
15 Barbers

I've been questioning where are all the seated's
hiding?

Especially because I mostly find barbs

Apparently My first alltime seated was hiding
7 inches down in an area I've been over at least
10 times..

But the juice was worth the squeeze!

Worn but sexy..here she is for your viewing pleasure

1876..

Always great to find something you've been looking for. I've never dug a barber and only one merc.......but have dug a seated dime and 3 Spanish silver from the 1700s. Just never know my friend . Awesome find congrats

 

[Old Dude]

Old a faithful was aptly named. I have a spot that I can always count on giving me something for the last year and a half now almost

 

[mariposagold]

Good deal. I'm still waiting for my first Barber anything. Found my first seated quite a while ago(1864 Half). Funny how that works sometime.

[JunkShopFiddler]

That's the old expression, "one thin dime".

 

[Carolina Tom]

I don't know what it is about seated silver. I have dug over 60 Spanish silvers, well over a hundred large cents and over 25 half cents. I have dug countless Indian head pennies, barber silvers and even 2 Draped Bust dimes. All coins that circulated during reign of seated silver. But...I have ONLY dug one seated silver - an 1890 dime! So congratulations on your first. They are not so common unless you're digging 19th century military sites, or certain geographical regions.

Im just happy it isn't holed and has a readable date!

Ahab im gonna drive up to Maine and bury you a few barbers!

No spanish silver for me yet..but I someday aspire to earn an avatar like Steve in pa's!
Love the spainolantern

Its odd that just 51 years after the American revolution we would have a coin that looks like Brittania seated

Ty all for the responses.

I know what you mean by hiding.I have noticed in some places that I have been over and over again to the point I feel like I am just walking the same ground over and over again,if I slow down a bit,not always but sometimes i'll catch that deep small object that I must have been in to big of a hurry to hear before.Nice find!
