Smallest coin I've ever seen

Got out for a bit tonight, and the fields are still producing. Fug a pile of trash but I did manage two Indians ( one fatty) and the smallest silver coin I've ever seen. Got a nice solid repeatable high tone in an area that my buddy and I have done 100 times, dug about 6 inches down and out popped this tiny coin. It's a 1835 1& 1/2 pence, never seen one before but I'll take it. Thanks for looking and HH. image.webpimage.webpimage.webp

You should post another picture after you clean it up. That's a really neat find!
 
Great finds & congrats - wish you many more!

Thanks, I've hit it with a tooth brush and water to get the dirt off. Don't think I'll clean it more than that, don't like to mess with them to much if I can avoid it. Sorry if the pics are a little blurry, tough to get my phone to focus on the detail because of its size.
 
it looks like victoria to me but i cant quite see the head side
 
Excellent find,,
I wouldn't mind finding one of those.
Congrats
