Oldest coin yet-1837 Half Cent

[litefire56]

Well, Half Penny, and issued from the Bank of Quebec, but still my oldest coin/bank token yet...

I got in about 45 mins before sundown tonight along the Fox river. I don't recall sweating as much as I was tonight.
I mean, face dripping with salt in the eyes type. I was ready to call it quits when I hit the '20 wheat at about 7".
That gave me the energy to press on and hit the Canadian half penny just 2 feet away. Sounded like a deep dime,
but ended up being big copper at 10".

Awesome John, Congats on the oldie. Amazing what a wheatie will do for you.

Congratulations that is indeed an interesting find. Yesterday was indeed hot, I was out for 2.5 hours but not rewarded for it. It is interesting to feel like you are in direct sunlight, only to realize you are in the shade.

Very sweet find. Makes you wonder how they got where they were and what kind of pockets they hid in along the way!
