My first Walking Liberty Half !!

[VERMONTPACKRAT]

Went on a short hunt under some apple trees on a farm on my neighbors property and came home with my FIRST Walking Liberty Half !
This is only the 5th silver coin that I have found in two years. This thing SCREAMED at me....
Still a little wound about this one.
The spoon seems to be pewter?? I have found lots of spoons and never anything made of this material.


Thanx for lookin' VPR

The half was a nice find. Keep hunting the farm.
You need more farms to hunt to increase your silver finds.
Only 5 silvers in 2 years. Sending you the silver fairy
Good luck.

Thanks for the replies!!

I dont usually hunt places that have much silver so this coin was welcomed. I like to hunt the cellar holes. No real good parks or other places for the silver. Most everything has been hunted out until I can afford a little better, deeper machine.

Nice diggs,

That walker is a beauty. Yes, The spoon looks pewter early 1800's I would say.

Congratulations.
