    1843 LC found yesterday

    Hello everybody.

    Found this at my silver park yesterday. Had a nice clear sound and was onlyabout 5 inches deep. This is my second oldest coin w/ a readable date1843 (my oldest coin being 1790 2 reale) and it the second LC I've found since I started MDing. It's holed and in pretty bad shape but itsure was an unexpected thrill seeing that LC come out of the ground.

    Good luck,
