Kirk,
You guy are "milking" that property for all it's worth. What a fantastic find! Congrats to you Mighty Whitey Dude!
Also, thanks for another funny post. I LMAO when I read the...."Dude, you are going to make your pants smelly"... quote. Classic.
Save some of those finds for Zoy too. We don't want to read about you been done in by a "crossed face chicken wing".
Great job,
MM

Thanks, MM, I just love to bring our adventures to life. What you read, is what happened, seriously. This has to be the best hobby in the world...also, spending time with a good friend makes it even better. The memories will always be there! Thanks, bud, for the kind words.

Oh, the "crossed face chicken wing" hasn't happened yet. Maybe I should "cross face" his machine! hahaha

Thanks, Paco, it is about time you showed your professional abilities on the forum. I, along with many others, welcome you here with open arms. Dude, if it wasn't for your great research, my coin would still be in the ground. You are great at sniffing out the Colonial sites, dude. We must hit it again!

Not to sound haughty, but this is the 1st I have seen on here, too. Actually, I think "TimmyNY" found a 1795 at a foundation. But, other than that, I haven't seen any. They must not have been circulated as much, or the dudes didn't lose them often. It is about the size of a half dollar. I almost sh*t myself when the green disc popped out. Ahhhh, the sight of coppa! hahaha

Re: Rare George Washington Halfpenny

A "crossfaced chicken wing" will be carried out on your detector, which is sleeping in the closet at this moment!

In all seriousness, Kirkie Poo, this coin, in memories alone, paid for your detector. One professional doyboy sweep...one professional doyboy pinpoint...one professional doyboy dig...and one professional doyboy non-deck of a semi-rare halfpenny! Welcome to the banner, Jerkie! You definitely deserve it, Poo!

Zoy, hmmm....where is my detector at this very minute? She ain't in the closet! I am definitely worried for her safety! hehehe An uppercut will be presented to the housing of your tector tonight. That should do her in for the year! hehehe

I know my detector was paid for. Yes, I aim to be a professional. hehehe I take great pride in my proper form and pinpointing. I don't know nobody that don't think the same. Wow, a triple negative.

Thanks, Bdoo, my goal this year was to make it up there. The history behind that coin is amazing. It was minted in England...indubitably, kind sir. hahaha

Re: Rare George Washington Halfpenny

Wow! Let me get this straight. I looked it up in the 2008 Red Book. It's a U.S. coin that was minted in England??

I wonder if I'll ever find even a Large Cent. My state is too young..

Congrats to you and your partners. Outstanding coin.
