Dug probably 30 shot gun shells before i hit silver! 1842 o half dime

[Oldrvrrat57]

Got today for a little while before planting begins and was finding more shot gun shells than I've ever found on an old home site ! First came the toasted indian and then the small ring ( brass) hunted it seemed like a hour before I hit a good signal! And out popped the half dime looks like the home must have burnt. 1842 o half dime had a pretty low mintage 350,000 this is my 3rd half dime this year. My talley on half dimes is now 20.5 of them since i started MDing
