After work today I went back over to a coworkers house that was built in 1951. Not too long after I got there I got a really good signal but it pinpointed kind of large so I really wasn't expecting to see silver. Turned out to be a 62 Franklin Half. This is my first half dollar of any type.

Yes, I nicked it. Grrr. (Just above the L in Liberty.) I really need to be more careful. One of these days there might be a valuable coin in the hole. I thought I cut an ample plug but I guess not. :sadsmiley: I struggle sometimes pinpointing with the Deus.

I also found 3 wheats (not pictured.)









Thanks for looking. GL & HH

Oh Bill... It seems like just yesterday that you were a budding young detectorist, and look at you now.... a full fledged member of the BIG SILVER CLUB!

Excellent find and a hardy congratulation!

I'm just trying to keep up with you Charlotte boys! Of course now that you have all that extra Deus training I'm going to be fighting an uphill battle. :laughing7:
