1800 Half Cent A BEAUTY!

[hogge]

Went to the button field with Roz and Bri today. Still had some snow in the fields, and the woods likewise, but we needed to get out. Seeing all these finds being posted, we needed to find something too! About 2 hrs. into it my brother Brian came up with this. Right next to the cellar hole that we thought had been plucked clean of coins. Coin appears to have VF details! Just goes to show ya, that year after year, new stuff gets turned up and repositioned by frost. That's why any seasoned hunter, goes back to the old spots. Enjoy! Hogge

Thanks for the Banner replies guys, but my brother found it, and he is not a member. ( Really doesn't have "The Stuff" anyways)

My feeble attempts at exclaiming the beauty of that coin in mere words would be futile.
Fondle it lightly, but often.
