Finally, an in situ pic on TNet that wasn’t staged! My second thought is holy sh-t that’s an amazing coin! How many of those are pulled out of the ground every year in the entire US. Not many! Way to go.

Nice old silver. Who cares if the plow hit it a few times. It does not take away from what it is.

Wow that's a beauty, looks like it was dropped in 1814, someone was bummed out back then.

Big-O-Silver gets a Big-O-Congrats. Some people call it patina...I think it's been smothered in awesome sauce. Once again congrats on the wonderful rescue. SD

I was asked in a message if there is writing on the edge. Yes, I'll take some additional photos and upload them to the original post.
