Nope, Not the same one

[No gold in NY]

I was at the school grounds today, on the same mowed field where I found a 1968 Kennedy half on June 20 2020. I was getting bummed out not finding much. Only three pennies and four dimes. I started detecting a bee line to the truck when the MXSport sounded off. Said it was a half dollar at 5 inches. That is the normal depth here for coins. My eyes popped when this shiny baby popped out of the dirt. Woohoo!!

I dug a 1968 40% half in 1984 when I had just started in this hobby. Now, 36 years later I have yet to dig another 40% silver half.

Grats on a nice find and thanks for posting.

Tell us about your bucket thing. Is that to wash your finds? Looks like it might work well. Gary

Nice job on the half. Would like to find one of those. I hear your frustration with the pics not uploading. I had the same problem. Wouldn't let me upload the in situ pic. Was really bummed. Are you on a phone or computer? Any way happy hunting No Gold!

No Gold in NY,

Nice hunt, always good to find a half dollar coin. By the way, the picture shows a 67 half vice a 68. Good luck with your hunts. Walt

Congrats on a sweet coin!

In five years of detecting I’ve only dug one Kennedy half and it was a clad one. They do seem rare.

Bummer on the Kennedy's, but I was looking at the "real" old coins you have found. Nothing older than 1900 for me.
