    1832 Capped Half

    The mild weather was calling me today. I hit one of my favorite spots and I am glad I did! Look what was staring me in the face!

    Thanks for looking!

    Wonderful! Try to resize that picture so we can view it better.

    Great coin find. Those things are harder to find than hens teeth. I think it's value is about $100.00

    Congrats Rick, that coin is in awesome shape! Wish i was there to see you recover it. Who knows what other treasures are still in that field.
    Maybe somewhere here can help you identify if you have the small letter or large letter variety.
    Congrats again, MM2

    Re: 1832 Capped Half

    First and foremost, congratulations on a stellar find! That is one beautiful coin! Secondly: How dare you cheat us out of a good digging story? A find of this caliber is deserving of at least 10 lines of text. Not just a "got out today, found this, thanks for looking." It's a little too cold for me to hunt today, so I'm trying to get my digging fix by reading these posts. Spice it up a little next time.
