1854 3 Cent Silver! A first!

[adventureswithjim]

I've been digging alotta years, dug many great things, just on probability, dig a couple million holes and you're bound to find good stuff...but this is rarity any more...something I haven't dug up before. One of those moments that sends a chill down your spine.

I got this wobbly tone, hard to pin point...but these places been hit by so many others, no real good strong tones left...when I finally get it out I thought maybe tiny silver charm, until I see "III" through the dirt...

HOO-RAH!

1854 3 cent silver. Unreal how thin and small these guys are! IDX rocks it again! Only about 4" down, but so small...

Not a half bad fathers days present!

Video will be coming soon!

Certainly is a rare dig they dont cover much area even when they lay flat. Been lucky enough to dig a couple and they are a thrill to find. Congrats.
