Congrats!!!
I see that you have found a good and old area to hunt. That's the key!! Is your heart rhythm back to normal yet? Lucky you didn't find a silver dollar or someone else would have to post it for you
I always get excited to see something that old come out of the ground and I've found lots of them. I have everyone of them and could never sell any. Did you try and clean it up or did you just soak it in olive oil? HH

I cleaned it w/ peroxide and use a little olive oil to bring out the features for the photos...I found it at the old house where I found the 1864 penny.
