A couple more seated ladys from the field

went back to my seated field. It started off slow with a shield nickel and then nothing really. than after about an hour we hit an area and start picking up a couple indians. Then came the sweet sound of silver. Out pops the 1873 seated. Then came the 1874 Injun. Best injun yet. Thus one was not in that bad of shape. Last I got the sweet silver sound again and it was the 1853 seated dime. Managed another injun and a shield nickel that I can't get the date off of. My buddy and his son each got a shield dime and a few indians and a couple V nickels. Leaning more about this site every trip. Hopefully it will keep giving up. So far this field has given up 12 seated coins, 20 indians, 5 v nickels, 2 shield nickels. Thats in 3 trips and working around the corn stubble.
 
Thank you. Very fortunate right now. The site is producing and hopefully will keep producing old ones for a while. A once in lifetime opportunity and the farmer is very cooperative with access.
 
Never heard of a "shield dime" what does it look like? .........nge
 
It was 2 shield nickels glued together. :spin: Ha!!! Nice catch. I read this several times and never caught that. Sorry, Should be Seated Dimes.

that is so cool. thats a site i think we all dream of. i cant imagine what you might find in years to come as the ground is turned over!
 
Thank you. Yes it is a dream site. Unfortuantley, it is a flooded soupy mess right now with the rain. I was hoping to hit is again a couple times before they plant it. I guess the plus side of it is they can plant it either as wet as it is, so I might be able to get in a again.

"It started off slow with a shield nickel"

Man, if that's starting off slow, I wonder what a fast start would be. :) That's an awesome spot you have.
