1856 Half Dime

[pamlicopanther]

I got out with my modded Cibola for a couple of hours this afternoon and found a few miniballs, but the highlight was this 1856 half dime. This is an area I have found numerous civil war items. I was trying to think outside the box and decided to detect on the side of a step hill. My logic was that soldiers could have sat on it for a look out and maybe they dropped something. Looks like they did as I found this half dime. What is amazing to me is the good condition this thing is in. The only cleaning I did was running just a little water over it.

You have your skills down, those half dimes aren't man hole covers. Sweet coin.

It hit hard on this target. If it is there, silver or otherwise this thing will find it.
