I was in the same field I found the 1943 Walker Half, I had a perfect 91 four ways, out pops this beauty. I found a Large copper disc/coin the other day with Oldjerseygirl that I still can't identify, those old copper coins are heartbreakers. Then every once in a while, out pops one in this kind of shape, sweet! I have it sitting in distilled water, I'm going to take my time on this one. I also found what I believe is a flat button, a suspender buckle piece, and another musket ball, that make three musket balls I've found in this field.

Nice digs, Congrats!
Thanks

Way to go Brad.
Real nice one there..
Thanks George.
Nine varieties, two are rare, NGC would only let me see pic of one of the rare ones. It's always so tough for me to figure a value on these. Either N-3 or N-1 are the rare ones. I almost forgot what it's like seeing the date right away like that. ha, still allot of field left! Come on down?

Congrats on that beautiful large cent, hardly ever see them in such great shape.
Thank you

That field has been good to me so far, thanks Joe

You will remember in your dreams the digging of that nice condition large cent,
When I'm awake too, in my dreams I'm finding that scary face chain cent along side 50 Spanish escudos.

Great large Cent Brad. The other bits are wonderful as well. Congrats
Thanks silver king
