Big Silver! Found My First Half Dollar Today and it's a Walker!

Only took me 2 years and 8 months, but I finally found my first half dollar! Best part is that it's silver! It's a 1941 Walker and in decent shape. I did nick the back with my digger, but not too bad. Found it at a brand new spot (an old baseball field). It was about 6 inches down and on edge.

Here's a few pics:

Fantastic, Tim! A walker was my first big silver too. Found two more since including another walker. I'll chime in with others that it's my favorite looking coin--the design is just gorgeous on both sides. A true work of art, expressing so much and in such a small amount of depth! And good job cleaning it!
