My permission dates 1735 lots of trash. Most of the targets are just under the surface but not this one she was about 12” deep. Whoooohooo!

Don't take this the wrong way, but beautiful, beautiful bust! Look at the way the hair is still detailed. The eye, eyebrow, the draped cloth over the bust...
Word of advice: Don't clean it too much more. Leave that wonderful dirt in there, because it makes the details pop! My 2-cents, anyway.
Congrats!
maybe some silver from the same time period hiding there too
Definitely a large fraction small date Here is your coin on eBay right down to the huge die crack running from between the 8 and zero through the bust to the left rim!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/1803-S-261...=item3d5246ba97:g:bcoAAOSw56NaKbGo:rk:71:pf:0
Nice detail on there! Congrats. In the 3 years I've been detecting I've found 3 and they are all barely identifiable... I mean like hold them at just the right angle with a flashlight and use your imagination! I hope to find one some day that's as good as yours!
