While I was in T-net chat, I decided to go to the little patch of woods across my street too swing for a few minutes for the heck of it. I got one signal and it was a nice HIGH PITCH. I dig it up and 3"- 4" down is my second silver!!! To match, it's my oldest coin to date and smallest coin to date!!! It's a capped bust half dime that came out of the ground with a tib bit of tarnish (odd) But eather way I am sooo AMPPED its not even funny :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:
I abruptly ended as soon as I got this thing in my hands!

Great find!
That's your 2nd silver? It's hard to do much better than that one. Like said, please don't disturb the patina. That's a great coin.

Nice find! You are in a great area for old finds and relics. I am sure it will not stay your oldest for very long.
