1877cc seated dime and assorted other finds

[Charles (Upstate NY)]

I got out for about 3 hours Sunday and had a bit of luck. Here's the front of the 1877cc seated dime, she was deeeeep! I was using the Explorer SE with a Explorer II coil (bobbing eyebrows).

Here's the reverse, it was packed with dirt so I had to wait until I got home to see if it was a cc and it was!!! CC's are my favorite mint marks because they are hard to find on the east coast and they are the only two letter mint marks, plus I just like them!

Here are some other finds. I think that's a nearly featureless two cent piece, I tried all kinds of mojo but it was a lost cause. That's the good side by the way. Also found a couple old jewelry thing-a-ma-bobs, one heavily corroded 1887 IH, and a couple wheats which I have gained a new respect for after finding the 1909s.

How deep do you figure this Seated Dime you found was? They sure are nice when they come out of the ground in High Grade and especially when they have the CC Mintmark. Would have been nice if the 2-Cent Piece would have been in better shape but you have to take what you get. Continued Success, Good Luck and HH.

I'd say the dime was all of 8 inches down, I was happy with the depth.
