Got permission to dig a few properties close together from a farm dated to 1800 and even though they have been hit by someone before they sure did miss one massive find. My first large 1800s silver coin and first capped bust. 6” down I hit a solid 36vdi on my equinox 800. Lone behold a 1835 Capped Liberty Half!!! It’s holed but I don’t care she’s unique!! HH!

Capped bust coins to me are awesome addition to any detecting finds. With over 50 years metaldetecting under my belt I have found only two first was a 1835 half dime and the second a 1828 half dollar.Congrats on your find.

She's absolutely gorgeous, brother! CONGRATS!

That high of a VDI on the Nox sounds sweeter than a whole mouthful of watermelon Jolly Ranchers, no?

Big-O-Silver gets a Big-O-Congrats from me. Most people would be thrilled with a Seated half, but a Cap Bust half would be a dancing in the spot moment. Happy for you. SD
