I screwed up the title of the post by calling it a half. It's my first dollar coin! Great day for a hunt. Got the 71D Eisenhower and a '46S Roosie.

I have found two of those so far, the first back in the 1990s and the second was last year, always fun to find large coins isn't it ?!! Here is mine.

Good job.....I love the Big dollars even if they are clad......my finds one day last week, in a local school playground, included an IKE dollar as well as a $1 Presidential coin, total was over $10.00 clad.......Thanks for your posting!!

Someday maybe I will actually get a dollar coin rather than a can lid! Congrats, must have been exciting!
