This coin was not found while detecting, I wish I had found it that way. There was a recent death in my wife's family. She has had the task of clean out the belongings of her deceased father. She has found several items, some WW1 medals, stamps and coins, jewelry. This has not been a fun job for her or the rest of the family.
That being said, she is a digger, she swings a Minlab Safari and several Tesoros. She loves finding treasure!
When she found this yesterday , it was in a small box along with several small peices of jewerly, some silver JFK half's and a two dollar gold coin. She was pleased as punch! So I told her I would post it for her. These are her families last treasures and she's please to be intrusted with them and their care. She wanted to share it with the all treasure lovers out here.
Like I said I WISH I had found it digging but no such luck. Thank you for all the positive feed back it DOES bring her a smile knowing that you all appreciated it too.
Peace and HH.
