Hey guys back again I don't usually just post a single find like this but I had to share. If you recall a few days ago I dug the 1836 cap dime. It took 20 yrs to get a bust silver and a half dime.

Well today just two days later I was hunting a old picnic grove caught a 11-38 at 9 inches and out popped another little coin. I picked it up and new right away I had another half dime. This one a seated nice shape 1839.


I'm just amazed with the performance of the etrac. With the amount of sites I have I'm thinking of bumping up to the CTX. Minelab has made me a believer. I dug some other old coins today as well but didn't have time to show them. I'll save them for my next post.

Thanks for looking

Nice coins.
Nuthin' wrong with lightning striking twice where silver is concerned.
 

Thanks guys yeah it was nice to get one in good shape. I don't think this one circulated long. There is a cabin about 100 yrds away from where I dug this coin. The cabin was built in 1813. I believe it was dropped by whoever lived at the place at the time.
