Construction site allows me to excavate a real treasure

I made it out with Safari Scott, we had a quick hunt at an old bank site that is now being excavated for a new building. After about an hour a lot of trash and an Indian head out pops a 1723 Woods Hibernia I almost did dirt angels (similar to snow angels just in dirt) she sat less then an inch. The dirt was very dry and almost like a powder.

:perfect10::drool::wow: what an awesome coin in really great condition all I can say is WOW :clapping:
 
Fantastic coin in great shape. :thumbsup02: Now a picture of a dirt angel would be something to see. :lol: Hope you can get back to that site.
 
A beautiful coin that is soon to be 300 years old! :wow:

It came out of the ground in amazing condition. Definitely a find worthy of some dirt angels! :thumbsup01:

Congrats on the spectacular find! :notworthy:

Always nice to hit those construction sites in an old area. Great find. I hit a torn out parking lot last year and came up with a nice 2 Real and 2 nice LC's, one of them sticking out of the ground!
 
Nice coin. The decision to follow the construction crews paid off. I can't believe how well it has been preserved in the ground all these years. Thanks for sharing.
