Funny how many forum members have asked the exact same thing. :icon_scratch: :dontknow:

Maybe it's too good for the banner. :dontknow:

There are some awesome and valuable finds on the banner but this rates with the best of them, if not "THE" best ever posted on T-Net. :-\

I sure would like to see the other half. :)

Agreed.

The title of this post could factually be changed to 'Extremely Rare' (rare doesn't match this item), specially as its most likely the only one of this age ever recorded in the US.

Bottom line on this now for me is that I would like for it to be known. Is that you members on here are great.You guy's are VERY BIG HELP TO PEOPLE! And to me thats just nice to know in todays WORLD! People caring and sharing is something in todays world (RARE in it self.) I was told something like this last time with the token to only get a NEW Camera and find the old pic. be used.So if it's the shape of these pics. these are only resized no croping on them. Guy's once again I'm HONORED by you.But just wish these things could be solved before all of this.In the future if I post any more I'll remember this problem.So that I can do my part to my best for you! :thumbsup:

Pete, I really like how you included those beautiful flowers, in the pictures above, to show your sensitive side. :laughing9: :laughing9: My Colonial mind is telling me that they are your wife's. :laughing9: I bet, if it were up to you, your patio would be decorated with Colonial buckles and sharp-edged pottery sherds. :laughing9: You know, something more manly for someone of your detecting caliber. :laughing9: :laughing9: :notworthy: :notworthy:

I do really hope this gets up on the banner now, Pete. The rarity of this find is up there with the best of the best that are already on the banner. :notworthy:
