well ive heard of begginers luck, but never really experienced it myself till this weekend,,,this was only my second time out detecting but now i really have the bug.. most of what ive found is junk, of course becuz im digging everything being a begginer,,but i did find this two cent piece about 6 inched down and couldnt be any happier with it.......ive been wanting to start treasure hunting most of my life, considering my father has been doing it for over 40 years.. just never worked out between working nonstop and raising two kids it seemed like id never get the time,, well no more excuses, the kids are 18 and 20 now and we no longer have the old ball and chain holding us back,lol, so maybe now i can get out there and have some more fun with pop..

that's a great way to start! congrats.
if it is an 1873, then you've got the key date for the series, and a coin that was never intended for circulation.

Woo Hoo SR! That's awesome, You're going to LOVE this hobby, I promise you that. And between you and me, you can get about 10G's for your 18 year old, I sold all three of my kids for new equipment........oh stop your booing, it's a lil' humor, actually just bought my 28 y.o. daughter a detector and should arrive tomorrow with my NEW M6! I'm so glad she's showing an interest!
