<p>[QUOTE="detectorben, post: 4525597, member: 89073"]Ok guys I know this is a stretch but any input would be greatly appreciated. I came to you because I figure many of you know US coins like the back of your hand. I am a metal detectorist and still very green when it comes to older coins. This coin has very little left on it to put it kindly lol. Here is the story. This coin was found metal detecting in a park founded in 1891. It was in a 3 coin spill which also contained a 1900 barber dime and 1906 barber dime. Both Barber dimes where in much better shape and easily readable. This leads me to believe this is a seated dime. I think I can see a very faint lady liberty arm and pole in the upper right area. It doesn't show up real well in photos. I also see the reeded edge and by the size I know it is a dime. I also found an 1892 indian head penny near by. I have found seated coins in this park before. What do you think? Can anyone see something I am missing or have any ideas on this coin? Thanks in advance.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1121182[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1121183[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1121184[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1121185[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
