Today I found my first half dollar!! I went detecting for 10 hours today. I didn't find much in the way of cool coins all day. Just $7 in clad, an old '30s film reel, lipstick case, two tax tokens.

I eventually found two wheaties in one location, and a '57 nickel. Then BOOM. Here's this surprise at the end of the day! I couldn't believe it! It's a 1943S.

I've been metal detecting for about 7 months now, as it's a relatively new hobby. This is my 9th silver coin: one war time nickel, 6 mercs, one '64 Canadian quarter.

What an awesome surprise this was!
