After six years of detecting I finally found a half dollar. It was at the high school grounds. Also found a handful of clad, and what looks like a bullet.

Congrats on your first Half! They don't surface very often...
 

It’s very interesting to see what people find.
 

Congrats on your first Half Dollar, and a 40 % silver at that !
 

Congrats. Those are not an easy coin to find pretty cool
 

half dollars are great to find, you'll never forget your first! congrats
 

My first silver half was a 1968, grats!
 

Congrats on diggin' your first half dollar.:occasion14:
 

Nice! I've only found 1 as well on a playground almost a surface find. Hard to find -
 

Yes, I guess I should add that I dug that half in 1985 I believe and I haven't dug another 40% half, ever. I've got many walkers and two franklins...
Go out and get another! HH ALL
 

That is a very nice half it is 40% silver. I would take any day.
 

Very nice 1/2 dollar find, congrats! :occasion14:
 

Congrats on your finding your first Half - and Silver too !

I've been lucky enough to dig (26) Kennedy Half's over the last 11 years ( found (8) in one coin spill ) ... but not a single one of them is Silver !

Good Hunting !
