Man oh man this NOE 29 brings back some great memories. I found the exact same variety a few years back. This Mass silver is as nice as you will ever see out if the ground. I got tipped off that this was found by a fellow lover of these coins. I have been waiting impatiently to see it. A giant congratulations on what is an incredibly special find and part of our early NE history. Well done and welcome
Btw you can see mine in my avatar.

That is about the nicest old coin a person could find while swinging a metal detector in America.

You are metal detecting Illuminati now.
