Started out the day with Royski at a new site. That site may do well with more time but I will be honest, I didnt want us to go home skunked. We headed over to site #2. There is a field where I have hit one other time leaving with a couple of Eagle buttons and a couple three ringers. The thing about this field is it is usually occupied by a dozen or so ornery Longhorn Cattle. The last trip they were not there. As luck would have it, they were not there today.I dug a pistol ball and continued working the field. A little later Royski brought to my attention that one of the Steers was on our side of the fence as he (Roy) had moved my way , away from the Steer that snuck up on him. I couldnt stop and told him lets just near the fence in case we need to hop over. Roy headed near the fence. Just then I got a nice signal. At about 9 inches I dug a copper disc and thought "HHmm, This is the size of a large cent. The steer moved closer so we moved on out. I dug another pistol ball later. Royski dug some nice finds too. So neither of us were Skunked. Now I have cleaned the Large Cent a bit but cannot identify? Maybe a Token of some sort?. Any help would appreciated. Thanx for looking.

Cool finds, I have never seen that style of coin before.
 
Looks foreign, would have too see more detail.
 
Good Job G!! That's a mystery coin. You guys need a rodeo clown to go with you to that site-LOL. HH, Q.
 
Its worn thin is very near the width of a large cent but worn to half the thickness. Reverse is worn of all detail, about .01 inch off both ways. thats the best as it gets.
 
Thanx Quindy ...I was that "Clown " today. But it was worth it. You shoulda seen when he charged me ... and I grabbed him by the horns.... and swung around and up on his back... wait a minute ,that didnt really happen. See what you did to me now Quindy. LOL

Great finds! Thanks for sharing...
 
I think it is solved on another Forum.Looks like King George II Half Penny.
 
Nice finds! Hope your coin turns out to be rare!

Getty- you two stop toss'n the bull around and put him back in the pasture. Bet he's standing guard on some nice relics!
Just make sure you can run faster than the bull!
