Strolling down random fields looking for new sites yields a big surprise. Our Emperor Wilhelm turned up after many years in the ground. If he had known which double dealers are present this times i bet he had stayed underground. Apart from that it looks almost uncirculated but showing a big scar from the plow and a rim damage. Rim damage was probably my fault because i was lazy. Random field, overload signal with this 34mm chunk and rock hard soil.

Nice coin, congrts [emoji106]
 

That's a beauty of a silver
 

Great find, congrats on the huge Silver! Old Willy looks badass with that scar on his cheek 8-):coins: The Eagle looks great, too!
 

Very nice coin. I would be hesitant to say the rim damage was your fault. It doesn't look like a new gouge to me. Most can spot shiny new scratches and gouges and this doesn't appear to be new. Just my 2¢

I really don't know for sure Scuba. Could happend during harvest too. It's a fairly new scratch other than Wills scar. With that big srcatch the coin is almost worthless to collectors. I personally have no problem with damage as i don't sell finds. Just a witness for it's history. :icon_thumright:
 

Nice looking coin, congratulations!
