Hunted a private home for around 3 hours today and found a first for me. A 1949-D Franklin Half! Also found 4 wheats ( '46, '49-D, '40-D, and '19-S) and a Sioux Falls Traction token that was used for a trolley system that was once in downtown. Happy dance? Yeah, I did it. ;D

Yeah, Happy Dance :icon_sunny:. Great coin and token :icon_sunny:.

Thanks for sharing.

:thumbsup: Nice find on the Franklin half. I've been detecting for 25 plus years and never dug one. I've found a few Barbers, Walkers and a '64 Kennedy, but never a Franklin.
