My largest silver so far

[dcinffxva]

After waiting for the snow to get low enough to go slogging through the woods, finally got out and hit the dirt. Pulled out a nice front barrel band for a rifle-musket. I'm guessing Enfield vs Springfield, but will wait for the electrolysis. Also a nice early large silver that is in surprising shape. A few CW bullets that I didn't bother taking pics of, and the usual haul of modern bullets and shotgun brass. This is the third earliest dated coin Ive found, so I was pretty happy about it.

Nice! Looks like to me the half has some type of signature scratched on it or am I seeing things?

Too bad about those engravings on the obverse, freaking awesome coin though!

The letters kind of look like a sideways Chi Rho symbol which is the first two greek letters in Christ. It looks like a P with an X going through it. Here is a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi_Rho
