I finally found my first Seated Liberty coin today. It is an 1883 Seated Liberty dime. I went through 3 boxes of dimes today and the first box I opened had just one dime in it. I noticed that it looked a little bent in the roll and figured it was a beat up Roosie or Merc. But to my surprise, when I opened the roll I saw Little Miss Liberty staring up at me!! I had to do a double take. At first I thought it was a foreign because the coin's obverse was inverted. But when I turned it right side up I recognized it immediately. It almost took my breath away. The other 2 boxes were skunks, but that did not bother me in the least.

Sweet! Congrats on a rare find...

that make the day better

Nice, haven't found one of those. I'm excited to find a mercury.

Awesome!!!! WTG!!!

Sweet score!

Thanks guys. I'm pretty stoked about it. Now I need to focus on finding a Morgan or Peace Dollar!!

I just got up about an hour ago and am still not awake, I thought it said she's a real hooker
liberty you naughty girl.

Nice find

Boyah! Great find. You might want to hang up searching dimes. It doesn't get any sweeter then that. Unless you pick up a 1916 D.

I'm absolutely going to keep hitting those dimes. They seem to be doing much better than the Half Dollars around here. At least BWR coins anyway. I still love those coin counter bags..

Point taken on the halves vs dimes. Hunt where the ducks are. I haven't hit the sliver search in some time. Month ago, bank asked if I would take $500 in CWR dimes along with the cents. I took em to keep them happy. One silver dime for all that work. Just wasn't worth it.
