Found this little guy about 7 inches down and it was reading weak even with the pro coil and full power on my SE Pro. This summer has been good to me, my first readable Buff, first V nick, first 2 cent piece and now this little guy.

Sounds like you have had a good summer. Maybe this cool weather will be kind to you as well.
Nice find.
 
Wow... That's awesome. I can't wait to find my next old silver coin. It always amazes me to see the different types of coins before the 1900's. When I found my 1882 seated dime, I had to ask my dad what it was because it looked so foreign to me, lol... That's why your coin is awesome... because I have never seen one like it, didn't know that they existed, and I love the connection to history that it brings forth. Good job and good luck...
