Rec field colonial surprise

[McCDig]

Sick much of the week but feeling better today, I got out for a couple hour hunt at a Baltimore Co. Rec field. Managed $10.71 in clad and a silver earring. Late in the hunt I ran into an area with iron sounds and got a 36-38 on the Equinox 600. The target was down about 7-8 inches, a green disk that turned out to be a coin. The detail on the back was the key to identifying this as a Virginia half penny, minted by the Crown in 1773.
