Back from college on spring break, and my buddy invited my dad and I to hunt a 1754 church. It had been hit hard in the past but one find saved the day! A beautiful 1766 irish halfpenny!! Also a carrige break (or whatever you call it) and a silver and cubic zirconia or diamond heart (not old but oh well) it was a fun evening hunt! Thse halfoenny is the Same date as one I dug back in December which is cool!

Great finds. I always like finding Irish coins, I guess it might be cause I'm Irish lol.
