<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jimmiejam, post: 14247, member: 1147&quot;]...I love finding old silver coins.&nbsp; They are tough to come by, at least in my part of Michigan.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have found quite a few barber dimes but the seated dimes are few and far between.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; So last year when I popped this outta the ground I was a happy guy. UNTIL I flipped it over.&nbsp;&nbsp; My heart sunk.&nbsp; &nbsp; I killed it&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; &nbsp; I now only use my steel trowel to dig close to the depth of the coin, then switch over to my plastic one to dig closer to the coin.&nbsp;&nbsp; Lesson learned, the hard way.&nbsp;&nbsp; Just think if this woulda been a CC mint mark.&nbsp; Check out the value that one is in the red book.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Last year was my best year for finding seated dimes by the way, 4 of em.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Clik on the &quot;good&quot; picture first to see what I saw before I flipped the coin over.&nbsp;&nbsp; To see the &quot;bad&quot; thing I did to the poor old thing.&nbsp;&nbsp; Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
