“Capped” off Thanksgiving

[Fentonian]

Went back to the site I hunted earlier in the week. Was a chilly morning so I didn’t last long but made some excellent recoveries.
1827 large cent
1833 large cent
And…
Finally…
1835 capped bust half dime😁😁😁
Was beginning to think it wasn’t going to happen this year

Congrats on the Half Dime, and coppers.
I've only dug a holed /30 off the property.
We've had a stiff breeze all day driving the cool temps.
Tonight it'll feel like 6F

Sweet little silver!
The old coppers are always there but the silvers only come around once in a while...nice one!

That half dime is in beautiful shape, a real treasure!

Great find with the capped half-dime! I have never found one yet. I was with a buddy when he uncovered one... I don't remember the date, but it was a beauty coming out of the ground! Congratulations!

Thanks! I’ve been into this hobby for 3 solid years, this makes my 5th capped coin, my best being the one in my avatar picture.

You’ve found some really good coins this past yr. Did you ever get an opinion on the large cent that looked like it had beading?

Capped of any kind is a good hunt for anyone!!! Those are far and few between.

Thanks! It has been a great year for me and my equinox, I didn’t send that largie in to get graded/verified, but after closely checking it under different scopes, 99% sure it’s 1793.
