A nice surprise- 1723 Woods Hibernia half penny

[Silvermonkey]

The month of May was very kind to me. My previous post showing the 1721 Phillip V 2 real was certainly the highlight. On Friday, I was able to end the month with another colonial era coin: 1723 Woods Hibernia half penny.

I've never dug this particular coin before, and it was in pretty great condition given the age. It was about six inches down, next to a stream out in the middle of nowhere. Thanks for taking a look. Scott.
