I was in a very old part of town at a public park. There was a lot of dirt moved due to a skatepark being put in. I was able to ID some old ground due to the presence of a large tree. Found a 1916 Wheatie and then BANG. This beauty popped out. Due to the wear pattern this coin was surely worn as a necklace. May have had another charm with it due to all of the scratches. I certainly was not expecting to find anything this big or old. Thanks for reading :)

God, that's gorgeous! Congratulations, what a coin! Look at how fat that baby is!
