That is absolutely cool!
What a great find... didn't know those existed...

Since you didn't know that it should have been on your bucket list, you should probably put it back where you found it.
Nice find.

As we have been known to say...It's about trime you found one!

Congrats!

Wow ... what a great find !
A lot of people in this hobby spent many years trying to find one - a lot more never find one !

It's what the others have said, its a U.S. 3 Cent piece or "Trime". Congrats on a tough coin to find.

It's about trime you found one.

The elusive trime. Well, elusive to me because I've never found one. Plenty of half dimes but never a trime. That's a hard one to get. Congratulations.

And it looks like it was found with a Bounty Hunter.......sheesh, there really is no justice in this world!

Hey CT Todd maybe you can help ID that coin?

 

[JeffInMass]

I've been at this for 30+ years, still looking for #1- Congrats!!

metal detecting is fun and finding cool old coins is one of the things that makes it a fun hobby. I got interesting in detecting primarily because of my love of history and a love of coin collecting. Read up and learn the history behind the coins and other items you might find. It helps keep your interest peaked and a little extra knowledge never hurt anyone. Here's a page of the history of your coin.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-cent_silver
