I got a chance to do a little coin shooting today at a local high school. I was finding the usual clad. I got a 83-85 VDI on the AT Pro at 10 inches. I haven't been able to identify the coin yet so I'm hoping some one can help.
I can barely see a date. It's ?820.

I think it is a George the III shilling:dontknow:
 
I agree, 1816-1820. Great find! I've never seen one before in person

EDIT just saw that you thought you saw *820, that's probably right!
 
Thanks guys for the information. It's one of my oldest coin to date. Still can't believe I found it.
 
Great display case piece be careful how you clean it. I would not just saying!!!!!!!
 
Thanks, A2coins. I don't plan on cleaning it. Can't wait for my grand daughter to see it.

Try putting a little baby powder on it that date might pop right out.
 
Very cool, I'm taking it must be silver, it's hard for me to tell, I would be very excited if I had found it. Congrats, I'm liking that coin!

Thank you all for the great compliments on my find. It is definitely silver, but what grade I wouldn't be able to tell you. I will try the baby powder to see if it will enhance it any.
