My bucket list got a little smaller literally 1835 half dime!

I was going to hunt a field Greg and I hunted on Sunday where he found the awesome class ring but it was just fate it was being mowed.
So I had my eye on another field right down the road near another school which borders a old farm house so I figured good spot to try
I actually hit it on Sunday for about an hour with only finding clad.
So I approached it as all the fields I hunt and bounced around till I started hitting some old cut nails this is a good sign and then a good signal
Turns out to be a clad dime then right next to that a faint squeak running Deus fast with my reactivity on 5 .
I dug it then I saw the outline of a tiny coin about 6” downI thought at first a trime then I saw the small outline of her cap!!!
I was so excited my first capped bust 1/2 dime! Then I hit some more clad one wheat cent and a broken gold chain hunted after work from 3:00-5:00
Been hunting 2 years and Been looking to find one and this ones in fine cond liberty still visible on her cap!!
Thanks for looking ..
 
Thanks guys Here’s a better closeup it’s one of the smallest coins people back then must have lost a lot of them!

Dude, killer kind. On my bucket list too! Congratulations :beers:
Never expected to see a bust coin I thought for sure I’d hit a trime this field I’m hunting is surer quiet
Only silver coin I’ve found there yet and a nice gold chain.
 
Very nice buddy. HH
 
Wooooooooohoooooo! Holy smokes that is awesome! I have yet to find one and actually bit the bullet and bought one on ebay LOL. I broke my cardinal rule of buying coins but I was sick of waiting :) You inspired me again to find one of my own.
 
Cant believe the finds you get! Thanks for showing them.
