Fugio and GW on the same hunt, now that's a nice pair!

Congrats on the spectacular spot. Good luck to you all!

Congratulations on some great finds as usual! The toasty Vt. is actually a RR-3....RARE. Too bad it's not in better shape. The key point in ID is the last ray of sun, and it's position with the "P" in Publica. Makes this coin identifiable for variety, if it's any consolation. We just sold one for $1,200 on Ebay. Ours was in much better shape. That GW is incredible with gilt. WTG! Todd....AKA Hogge
