Great evening Hunt included Capped Bust Half Dollar

[lonelyduckhunter]

Got out for a few hours this evening, been swamped at work and hardly little time to detect well tonight I made up for lost time. Got a boy scout button, 3 silver war Nickels 2-43 and a 44, a 1893IHP, 1907 V Nickel a silver thimble with a 7 on it and something I always wanted to find but never thought I would a Silver 1833 Capped Bust Half Dollar. I have pounded this place but yet it never ceases to amaze me what comes from this small parcel. The capped bust was about 3" down on edge with a few nails beside it. To say this short hunt was amazing would be a understatement. Happy Hunting to all.

Thanks for all the comments. This is def my favorite find in my short detecting career so far It will be hard to top this one. I was more excited finding this then when I found my 1877 IHP last Sept.
