So let me get this straight. You were granted permission to metal detect on a golf course????

That is a terrific find! Congratulations!

Very nice coin , great shape , so would that be the same as a nickle , maybe a dumb question , did they make nickles at the same time they made half dimes ?

Not a dumb question. The last half cents (seated liberty) were minted in 1873, the first nickels (shield nickel) were minted in 1866.
Great find and good pic too,
