Took the dogs for a hike this morning and stopped by my favorite site. Went there last week and got a large cent and a king George. Today was thinking I need some silver and I got it 1796 half dime. Also pulled this nice 1802 large cent and a few buttons. Thanks for looking.

Congratulations on the great coin finds you made! I think that might be the first half dime I've ever seen. That is a beautiful coin!

Great BANNER find! Who cares if it has a hole in it? It was probably holed by someone back in the days when coins like that were still circulating!
