Showed up when I least expected it. Me and Rusthunter were hunting a site that he researched -wa not having much luck, so started digging anything that was even a possibility--- when out popped a1853 half dime at 4 or 5 inchs. My first and I don't even remember what it read :bangahead01: but sounded good enough to dig I guess
Wow!!!! Beautiful half dimeThat is my favorite coin

They are tiny aren't they?Nice half dime
It's in really good shape too. Congrats on that one. It just goes to show you that the hunt can be a dud and it only takes one signal to turn it completely around.

Awesome silver.
I know how you feel... many times I just dig a signal not expecting too much when out pops a goodie.... then it's how was that reading?
Congrats on a beauty of a half dime.
Sweet coin! I hope to find one of those next year.
Congrats on that half dime! Some of my best finds have been those iffy signals that I can't remember!
