👉🏽FIRST SILVER👈🏽 1858-S Seated Liberty Half Dollar

Finally...... a little over a year of frequently hunting and then this!!!! My first silver and she's a beauty and an old one! 3/4in depth (Surface find) I thought I nicked it with the digger at first so I was kicking myself in the butt, but once I got home under closer examination I feel better knowing I didn't nick it lol! Probably a lawn mower my guess.

This was found at the same location I found the 1905 Portland Fair Token on a previous hunt. 10 minutes in and first target of a 2 1/2 hr hunt at a 1857 home site!!
I was hunting in a custom setting I created on my V3i, single frequency 2.5K, 100 recovery speed, sensitivity 9, all metal 68, disc 88, 5 low filter.

Thanks for having a peek! HH

Holy Cow! You scored a big time bucket list coin for your first silver my friend. Congratulations on a big old chunk of silver there. Still need to notch that one off my list. You must still be buzzing from this find.

Extremely lucky for your first silver! Most of us start with Roosevelt Dimes, or Mercury Dimes (which I have sadly not even found any of yet). A seated half dollar is one of my dream finds, congrats!!!!!!!

Nice way to start the silver bug. Next will be a mercbut that's all good too.

You started off your silver coin career with a bang! Literally. I always cut wide to avoid the "Zingos" and I'm sure you will now too. That's a super find and one to be wicked proud of. I've found only one Seated Half in the near thousand silver coins I've dug. Congrats!

Dang, what a first! Congratulations

WTG on the silver half, it'll take a while to beat that one.
