Hello folks it?s been a minute since I?ve been here
I read most days but have not been hunting much
Today I went to a spot close to home
It?s colonial for sure the site war in use as
Early as 1600s
Lots of my funds come from here
Today I had a weak squeak on the Deus
It was at 10-12 inches
In soft clean dirt
1839 capped 1/2.
Needless to say I?m stoked
Thanks for looking east coast hunter

�� I must have missed the posts on all those capped bust halves
I did see one or two over the years but
I wish you luck on your hunts.

First capped bust half (treasurenet.com)\
WOW !!! CAPPED BUST HALF DOLLAR !! from California no less!! (treasurenet.com)
Would you attempt to clean a Capped Bust Half? (treasurenet.com)
1837 capped bust half dollar (treasurenet.com)
[BANNER] 1814 E/A Capped Bust Half Dollar (treasurenet.com)
1833 capped bust half dollar (treasurenet.com)
1826 Capped Bust Half Dollar (treasurenet.com)
My best find ever - 1832 capped bust half dollar 1/17/2010 (treasurenet.com)
