1773 Virginia Half Penny

Like I said in my other post I will try to post some pics of my finds I have had over the years.

This coin was found in a bottle that I broke retrieving it. I wasnt looking for a bottle so I wasnt being that gentle doing my plug. This is the way it came out of the ground no cleaning needed.

WOW That is nice. They are usually worn thin. That thing should be worth several hundred dollars

Oh I just thought, do you have any idea how old the bottle was?
