Went for a short hunt back to the woods with my brother this past Sunday morning and the first coin I dug was this big Walkin' Lady! Yes, a 1937 Walking Liberty Half, my first! I was pretty pumped about the big silver, especially for the first coin I hit right off the bat. The rest of the day we found some wheats and the now dreaded tax tokens. I think folks gave these things to the kids back in the day to use as play money or something since they are so plentiful.
Anyways, I washed the dirt off for better pics.

Awesome find! You must have some sacred ground down there or something. I wish the old silver would move through the ground a little farther north, lol.
I heard that north and south of that spot!!
