Posted a few pics a while ago of some US coins I have found here in England. There has been one that i secretly liked but never found. I noticed someone found a holed piece in a local club and another was in the hobby magazine. And, as I started 'new post' noticed an American finder had posted one above mine! Found the 1852 Trime in a local arable field with the ever reliable Deus & immediately thought it would be an English silver 3 pence (it may have circulated as such) Over the moon at long last! I have a very soft spot for US coins.

I have yet to find one of those. I've gotten several half dimes but the trimes elude me for some reason. Nice find!

It's opposite for me. More than my fair share of Trimes but not one Half Dime..

That's probably at least as rare a find over there as finding any Gold coin for any of us would be ..
As I think about it , no ..probably a lot more rare !
Without a doubt I can say I'm freaky for y'all's silver coins of Queen Victoria , same with Canadian silver ,beautiful coins !

You would think as small as they are that people would find a lot more over here. Congrats on the sweet find.
