Hey y'all

This was by far the best hunt of the year. I went to my cousins house that was built around 1900. We were taking turns digging signals and we got a screaming signal by the sidewalk and about 6 inches down we found this, she spotted it first and I was sure she was going to keep it but she said she had no desire to keep it so she gave it to me. I'm so exited, this is my first 1800s silver and its a great coin. I also found a couple wheats but nothing else old

As you can see, it was hit by my cousin's shovel and bent from who knows what
Some wheats but I ran out of holders so they'll have to wait till my next coin shop visit

Nice man.. You ever get to detect around Laplace/ west to reserve areas?? I've always dreamt of doing it. I'm on the northshore hunting around here

I've never hunted there, have you found anything good there?
