Unbelievable 1909 Barber Half Turned Pop Out Pin Jewlery!

[Centsless Detecting]

Was having a dud of an outing today. That was until I had a screaming half dollar signal on the Manticore. Solid tight 95 in all directions at 4 bars deep. Right off a hiking path in a popular set of woods that I've never been to with my buddy. I called him over after I had the signal and was calling my target as a half dollar. He agreed with me after swinging his nox over it.

I was SO eager to dig it but he wanted to record the live dig on his phone. We got the whole thing on video! I'll post it to my YouTube channel shortly. I can't edit it and there are a few profanities in it and we apologize. But it was a freaking amazing half dollar with a pop out face and we were both in the moment.



Here are a few of the pics of my new favorite coin find. Been slowly getting used to the Manticore after I did a factory reset. I messed with some settings when I first got it and was kinda disappointed at how it was acting. But now I have some renewed faith in the machine!

Enjoy! Thanks for lookin and happy hunting to all. Fall is here and the woods are back in session!

Wow ... what an amazing and unique find !

That's clearly one of the best repousse coins I've ever seen!
There have been others posted over the years on dimes and quarters mostly but that's probably the first I've seen on a half host coin.
No dud day there!

Wow thanks ironhorse! Not the half I was expecting at all. My buddy has one on a dime. I never thought I'd actually dig one let alone on a half dollar. Definitely not a dud today!

Thank you, thank you! We were at it for about 4 hours with nothing to show for the day other than some wheats and musket balls. My buddy found a merc in the path and told me to walk in front of him on the path and that shocker popped for me. So glad we got it on film. Clearly not a planted find lol. I was so close to just digging it but he told me to wait so he could film it.

Thanks mindcrime. Everything about that dig was truly unique for sure. From the signal to the recovery.

Thanks a bunch pepperj. Your edit really makes the picture pop! Pun intended?

I would have been just fine with a regular old walker. This absolutely is my new favorite coin find.

Seeing it up top would just be the icing on the cake. I'm glad you all get to see and share the experience of this very unique coin though.

I have to admit I'm having a stalking problem with her.
A real beautiful piece.

Haha stalk away I don't mind. She's much more stunning than the usual lady liberty on the Barber series.

I should have voted banner, I realized after voting winner. It's very unusual and getting it on video is frosting on the cake. Together worth a banner, I think,

By just giving the thumbs up on the 1st post will increase the vote count.
The bar is set at a 60 minimum count.

Then there is all the other little things like title, write up, exposure.

The main thing is to click a like on the first post.

You and many others say I voted it as a Banner.
Failing to realize that they probably already did by the emoji selection.

NOTE TO READERS: Clicking on the WOW icon in the original post will
decrease the post count.
Hope this explains everything properly. If not please correct my posting.

Hope this does travel up top.

awesome find! I've always thought those were cool and I think this is probably the first one I've seen of a half dollar. Interestingly, the dies to punch these are still sold today
