After a long trip to Baltimore and back today to pick my mom and the kids up from the cruise they were on I decided I would take the AT Pro out for a little while. I went up to an area with old mines and tried the one side of the road that I haven't hit before and after just finding old pieces of brass and copper I decided to try the other side of the road and within five minutes I found this 1886 seated dime, don't know the value but it's priceless to me, it's my oldest coin to date.

Great find! I like knowing the value of a coin, but I don't think I'd ever sell one.

Found one of those last year...by far my top find to date. Your's is MUCH nicer than the one I found. Congrats. Lots of nice detail on that!
 
Thanks, never thought I would find a coin earlier than 1900. It gives me hope there are some more early ones in that area.
