A Friend and I were out MDing the other day and I found a few bullets, nails and an old log wedge. After I had been there a while and wasnt having much luck I decided to leave and head home. Shortly after I got home my friend that I was with came by to show me a coin he found. We washed it off and it was in great condition. Can still read everything on it including the big 1831 date. Its a beautiful coin with a picture of a woman with longer hair and a cap on. I forgot what was on the other side.

Do any of you know how much it might be worth? Like I said after it was clean it almost looked like it is in mint condition. He found it about 6 inches deep.
