Detector(s) used
CTX3030
UPDATE! NGC coin grade has arrived...AU details Stained. 2662135-001

So tonight after work I grabbed the 3030 and braved the tick and fly infested forest that I enjoy hunting. I invested in a head bug net. Great purchase it worked very well. So I got to detecting and it wasn't to long before I got a nice silver hit. Dug this awesome 1800 draped bust dime. Wow! I can't stop looking at it. Was a few other flat buttons and what looked like a worn to the flat draped half cent copper.

Wow, that's pretty cool! I can't stop looking at it either!
 

That's AWESOME!! Congrats
 

Sweet looking coin, great job saving that baby!
 

You dirty lil devil you! That is a killer find Tony. Something I will hunt for until I conquer it. Very low mintage. We just never see these posted. Great score buddy. I may vote Banner tomorrow when I wake up. Glad I woke up to see this rarely found coin....awesome. I'll be dreaming about that thing in 8 minutes lol
 

Great looking silver and worth a nice chunk of change. Congrats on braving the biting little buggers to get this silver.
 

Sick find!! I'd kill to find that!! So beautiful, thanks for sharing. Cheers. Less than 22,000 minted for that year. Again, great find. Definitely worth several hundred dollars.

That would be awesome if it was barely identifiable. In that shape its absolutely spectacular! I'm going banner right now!

Why wait until tomorrow, I just did?
 

Great find Tony, BANNER all day. Not to be negative, but you need to post up some nice close ups for it to look even better up on the banner.
 

I will post some better pics tomorrow . I usually use my front window sill for perfect lighting. But it was dark when I got home. Just couldn't get a good focus up close.
 

Holy mama! Now THAT is a dime, congrats on your dream find!
 

I had to look at it for a bit, partially because the software turned it 90 degrees and partially because the picts make the front look like its a copper... :icon_scratch:

In any event - that is an unbelieveable find and with a good picture I'm sure the mods will put it up top! Congrats on what should be a banner find! :hello2:
 

Awesome find!!
 

Absolutely amazing find. A dream hit to be sure! Congrats!

Excuse me while I drool a little more at your pics!
 

Wow, not only quality but also a VERY low mintage coin! Considering that even at a bare minimum "net F--porous" grading, this would still be in the vicinity of a $2,000.00 coin, I'm nominating it for the banner up top! (And the details actually warrrant a higher grade!) Congrats!!
