dime grand slam

Not as nice as Bryce's but still nice for me.

A freind called me last night and said he was going out in the AM. I hadn't been out all week, so I made the time to go and glad I did. My first goodie was a merc. I showed Scott and he already had one with a small ring and a religious pendant. A few wheats later and I dug a rosie....i was going real slow all day listening in between the garbage for hi tones and closesly examining. I did get fooled 2 or 3 times by a bent nail or piece of iron. Next tone was bouncing around but sounded good. There was adjacent garbage but I felt confident something was there...yup turned out to be the barber. I showed Scott then got another good tone 2' away. I asked Scott what he thought, and he said "I don't know, let me dig it!" I already knew it was a good one.....turned out to be this bus token that we have found before.

A few feet later (this is all w/i 10' of where i found the SLQ last week) and I get a good sound nestled in the junk.Comes up quarter penny dime . I liked the warble so I'm diggin. Out comes another barber with some green on it, so I knew there was a wheat which I took out. I gave Scott the thumbs up and rescanned. There's something else in there that doesn't sound so good. In the pile now it does sound good. Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the seated.....yeah she's spent but it's a 1st one for me and it has a date! ...Yelled to Scott and he called it right away. For a building from 1930, we were shocked to see this one come out.

Another few feet and I dig another rosie. This was all in ` 2.5 HOURS. Also dug 7 wheats and a few pieces of clad.

Great day for me, one of my best.

I could hunt for a thousand hours this year, and be lucky to even find one seated coin.

That's just AWESOME!! :super:

Single, triple, grand slam, and a walk.....congrats & congrats on your first Seated! My first Seated was a quarter (1876) and about in the same condition as your dime, but special to me!!
 
Which barber dime did you find the seated with?

Chris

I think I've only found a barber/seated dime spill once. Can't remember the dates.
 
Congrats on an awesome hunt!
 
My friend... no slam is nicer than another.

Your's looks MINT to me bro.

If I'm lucky enough to dig even one silver...even if it is a Roosey...I'm still THRILLED and get the same goofy smile on my face.

Congrats on an AWESOME day.:thumbup:
 
another excellent bunch of finds posted here. a silver coin slam is something I've always hoped for but it hasnt happened yet.
