Went out metal detecting in pasture for about 15 min on ranch where I work and found this 1830 Cape bust half dime I sure wasn't expecting that. IMG_20170919_071953185.jpg IMG_20170919_072013288.jpg

That is CRAZY awesome! I have resigned to the fact that I will never find one of those here in Northern Michigan....as I am fairly certain we were all poor dirt farmers that used deer antlers and beaver pelts as currency. Congrats on that sweet roundness!

Beautiful coin, but all those fine scratches from rubbing the dirt off the obverse will really knock down the value...
