Old schoolhouse produces 1835 capped bust half dime!!

[Gregg3131]

Hit an old schoolhouse site in SE VA. First hour was lots of trash which normally sends me packing but the landowners young children showed an interest in detecting so I stuck around to teach them about the hobby and local history and low and behold we were able to save this beautiful 1835 capped bust half dime!!! Great coin and nice spending time with young ones interested in the hobby
