Found this little guy tonight. Decided after dropping my boy off at a friends that I would try a spot shown on an 1857 map and not the 1870 map. I have tried this spot before with nothing but nails with my old ace250. Today with my newer machine I did find some stuff. Couple bullets, a knife blade, couple iron buckles, and this worn but beautiful Trime.

Numbers were 61-64 on the ATP, I sure wasn't expecting silver. Depth was around 4" even though it said it was 8". Probably due to size and how thin they are. I am still stoked, this has been on my bucket list since I first seen one on here a few years ago.

So cool! Love the history behind those 3 cent coins. Most people don't believe me when I tell them the US minted a 3 cent coin. :thumbsup:

Great find! I've found a lot of coins over the years, but a 3 cent silver is still on my bucket list. Nice going.
