Today I found an old coin about 5 inches down, and I'm super happy because it's definitely old, but in such bad condition that I can't figure out what it might be. It is 1 and 1/8 inches in diameter, and only the faintest shadow of a figure is visible on one side... I don't have a scale but it feels pleasantly heavy.

I was so thrilled when I found it, I feel sure it's the oldest coin I've found so far. (Before today my oldest coins were some Indian Head pennies from the 1890's.)

I don't remember what it was possessed me to buy a metal detector earlier this summer, but I'm glad I did. You all said it was addicting... it is. IMG_20150911_153937.jpg
