Hey guys I haven't posted in a while. I've been doing quite well with numerous barbers, mercs and Washington quarters. But I've been working on my soon to be youtube channel. Needless to say today I had about 45 minutes to hunt and I went to a great place that's been "pounded" but haven't been there in about 2 years. I started to hit old fields (now woods). I got a nice musket ball then another. Not too long after the second bullet I got a solid 62 @ 2" on the ATP. It was also the first time out with my early Father's Day present from my wife and son. They got me a AT propointer which is awesome! I decided to record it because of how solid the signal was. Out pops a 1853 3 cent silver in AMAZING condition! The coin is in great condition if not close to AU. The coin is straight and not bent and the rim is still raised. I was literally shaking I've always wanted to find one but with only a few years of production and use they're very elusive. This is the second AU coin i found from the 1800s this year! I will let everyone know when the youtube channel is up and running too.

Wowzer! That is very high on my bucket list! The 2, 3, and the 20. Thanks for giving the reading and depth. Congrats on that superb looking trime.

Going out in a few to get my swing on. I hope for a chance to post the same, someday!
 

Small little buggers they are,first and only one I ever found I thought was play money.

Very NICE piece of the past dude!:icon_thumleft:

Yep, the trime is a favorite of mine too. Welcome to the club! It is in great condition!

The pictures make it a lil hard to understand just how difficult it is to find these. They are really tiny!

WTG!
