2nd career bust half

[malenkai]

This is one of the nicest coins I have ever found. I rank it #2.

Hit a new site today, with an old school and some old ballfields, and I expected a 30s-40s kind of silver site.

But no silvers on the ballfields or around the school building, but the site has a large amount of fields, so I wandered them a while. Hit some old targets like an unidentifiable copper (I think it is a KG II), a shoe buckle, and some tack, and a beautiful 06-48 to 08-48 on the E-Trac in a remote corner of one of the fields, near the end of the day, and there she was.

Its one of the weird 3 varieties for that date, not sure which one, but I think the "patched 3".

I haven't found many silvers yet this year, but some of the ones I have found have been memorable.

HH everyone

Oh you fooled me with your title. I thought you had found two Capped Bust Halves, but you have a Draped Bust HALF dime and a Capped Bust HALF dollar!
