1853 Three-Cent Piece

[DetectoDude]

I have always wanted to find one, because it is so small! Well I haven't found much to post this year, so when I found this I thought I would post it and share it with everyone! I went back to the North East Kingdom for a 4 day hunt, and lots of other things came out but this one is my favorite. Thanks for looking, Rick

Proud of you Bro. It was a great four days detecting with you again. Glad you have finally gotten comfortable with your Minelab. Let's see how it does on shipwrecks in Feb....Lance
