Hello , I have been having luck detecting in old trails that lead to abandoned homesites ..Sun. Nov. 1-09 Rainy day here ,nice temp ,moist soil ,almost perfect conditions for searching around some of the old colonial crossroads back here in the pines of Jersey.. Working this early site for few weeks now ,thought I should try this trail leading to it. After dozens of shotgun shell tops and buck shot . I found the LC ,1819 , next a 1821 Capped bust dime , last a 1833 capped bust half dime, must of been a spill , all were found within inches of each other , at 4- 5" deep . Total : 1821 over 0 Capped Bust dime , 1833 Capped Bust half dime , 1819 Coronet Large cent Update 11-5-09 ,I was told this dime does not exist and may be only a one Thanks for looking, CMD

Wow. Congratulations on some very old coins. Nice Digs !

Most people are born as hunters in one way or another. Does it not make sense that we gather as well. Enjoy the hunt and gather wisely.

CM, you are working one heck of a section of the Pines.  Your recent finds were enough to leave me breathless, but now you go out and recover one of the best pocket spills posted in a loooooooooooong time!  Keep on working those woods and I can bet you'll continue to shock us! |

One heck of a day there! Would like to see what that dime actually turns out to be in rarity and value. The Red Book doesn't list it so it must be quite a rare variety. Keep us informed as that would be Banner I would Imagine. Not to mention $$$$  Congrats.........Hogge |

DOn't clean that overdate. I'd send it in and get it certified, then you could eventually put it up for auction. If it's one of a kind, that could potentially be a $100,000-200,000 (or more) coin at auction.

HI great finds but according to the R. S. Yeoman <Red book of 2009>
there was 1,186,512 of these dimes made by the US Mint. There is
a Large & Small date in this Variety.
Over time the Mint did restamp some coins.

I have a few questions....
Out here in California, we mostly dont have the opportunituies to find old coins, nor is there any old civil war relics etc...
So what else is there for us? We have gold nuggets and lost jewelry to detect for.
So I detect to make money, yes it's fun, but still I do it for the cash.
What I want to know is...
I keep reading about you guys finding old silver coins and civil war relics etc.... but never is there any mention about money.
Is there good money to be made finding old coins and relics? Or do you guys do it just for fun cuz you are history buffs?

I understand. Can you see anything that looks like an overstrike from my original post picture ? Need opinion. |

Hey Diamond, great finds! Me thinks that may be a flaw in the metal under the date and not a zero. Would be nice though if it were a printing mistake, would be very rare indeed! I too dug a couple of nice half dimes in So. Jersey years ago. On a whim I had my son go back to the site and he also was lucky enough to dig one this past year. I am retired in SC for the past 15 years and really miss the Jersey treasure finds.Keep up the good hunting, I think your finds are many more to come in that area.Be patient and cover it slow.Best of luck and keep posting!!!
