1846 seated half dollar found!

[70monte68]

Hey all! Today I took a half day, just needed to swing the coil in this nice weather! I thought of two spots immediately to hit. The one was out of the way, so, I figured I would hit the other since it was the way I go home. This spot has been pretty good with a 1876 seated quarter, some coppers and some buttons.

I pulled up got my stuff and headed out to the field as I got closer I realized the batteries were dead( I took the headphones off and put it in the trunk last time out). So I walked back got fresh batteries and thought this is not a good sign and headed back lol...

Within fifteen feet I got a real solid 93 on the T2 (awesome machine) and out popped this coin. It was found in five minutes, it was the only target I dug and left after I found it.

I have not cleaned it yet, but, the detail looks really good.

Awsome find!!! It's amazing what fresh batteries will do for you! I hope the same thing happens to me the next time I put fresh batteries in.

looks like a honey ! be very careful if you do decide to clean it - It is way too easy to improperly clean , and seriously reduce value ,
take a look at the forum here for knowledge on how to clean coins ( many might say don't touch it ) Argentium.

I'll bet you'll be quick to change batteries in the future. WTG

That's a nice one man. I'd say EF for sure. I'd soak it and be real gentle with her.
