1836 silver surprise

[richeysd76]

Got out with my son to an old field we've hit before . We spent a couple hrs didn't have a lot to show for it, I had 3 flat buttons and an Indian head 1868
But towards the end of the hunt I got a real nice deep signal. Popped the plug and saw nice round silver. Turned out to be a nice 1836 capped bust 1/2 dime

I could be wrong but, you folks out west have a better chance of digging gold coins out there than we do here in the Deep South.

Hey GaRebel we do have some gold here in the South
