Went on a short hunt under some apple trees on a farm on my neighbors property and came home with my FIRST Walking Liberty Half !
This is only the 5th silver coin that I have found in two years. This thing SCREAMED at me....
Still a little wound about this one.
The spoon seems to be pewter?? I have found lots of spoons and never anything made of this material.


Thanx for lookin' VPR

Those 1/2 dollar silvers are sure pretty coming out of the ground arent they. I have been hunting since 2004 pretty heavy and hadnt found one until week before last, then I found 2. Keep lookin' TMAN...

Mega congratulations on a favorite find. Those walkers make me smile from ear to ear. :thumbsup:
