Manticore meets a lady

[laplander]

This one has been eluding me. Don't get me wrong I have been having lots of good finds and some silvers, but the seated dime was a welcome sight. Sniffed this one from the iron it read 79 80, nice high tone. This 1870's house has been hunted several times by multiple machine and 2 different hunters. I was thinking maybe a few targets but not this many. Lots of co-located targets, the crotal bell shows rust from the chunk that laid on it. 1871 patent date on the buckle. I didn't dig a single piece of iron, really building confidence with this machine. Not showing all the rivets, chunks of lead and pistol cartridges

Jeff, SWEET! I love seeing those Seated coins recovered from their long "dirt naps!"

The buckle is very nice/ornate, and crotal bells are always welcome!

Thanks Steve! A few more feet over and the new highway would have had it forever. A number 3 on the bell and the clapper is still in.

Jeff -- whew! Definitely a nice save, then, on a coin that was ALMOST rendered forever "unrecoverable!"

#3 bell, with clapper. VERY nice!

Thanks Mark! All you have to do is get out, and do some research.
