Unreal coin

I was out today for a few hours.. I've never seen so many pieces of foil in one place... I was finding it everywhere.. I got one good signal and my god it turned out to be a coin I've been dreaming of finding... I've found a few but crusty and mostly too far gone to ID.. Well look how this 321 year old W&M half penny came out of the ground.... I near cried with delight

Congrats on a great looking early copper. That's about as good as they get after being in the ground that long.

I've found a good few of these but never one I could even get a clear pic of... I'm still gobsmacked at this one

That is in AMAZING condition for being in the ground for so long! WTG!

Fantastic condition for sure. You'd almost think it have be bronze to hold up so well, heck copper coins 100 years newer rarely look as good.

Hope to find something as nice some day.

congrats.
