EDIT: Added picture of the axe and hatchet. :)


I've not been at this hobby real long, but have been blessed to find half cents, half dimes, 3 centers, 1/2 reales, etc... But no largies. Been around a whole bunch of people who have, so its just been my luck.

This morning my 15 year old son and I grabbed the Etacs and went to detecting celebrate his birthday... ;D Went back out to our tavern site that has been so good to us in the past.

We actually spent the first hour on another part of the property before shifting back to the usual good producing area. When we did he got a nice axe head, I got a hatchet and this nice 1798 Draped Bust largie. :hello2: Been waiting a long time to find her! The photos do not do her justice - it looks much much better than those pictures make it out to be. This may be the best looking Largie that I have ever seen come out of the ground.

Thanks for looking! :)
