went to a new soccer field last night an hour before dark after every one was gone,and found nothing till dark on way out of field then bang 12 45 i dug about 10+ for this i thought large cent till i got home,nope KING GEORGE 1 1721 HALF PENNY with britania,i wish i could capture on film the true condition of the coin but the camera wont let me,so i kept the dark pic because the shadow shows a little...
 
Very nice congrats! I found three stacked on top of each other detecting a stream behind my house, doubt that will happen again, fingers crossed though.
 
Wow! Nice find and a great save. Almost 300 years old...all I can say is WOW and Congratulations!
 
Very nice finds. Are those your oldest finds?
 
Like GK, I found three coins from that era a few inches apart from each other...in the yard of a modern home! One was a 1722 KG, the other two were older. A Wm III and a Wm and Mary Halfpenny!

Ha wow Neil, good find! Since that time the largest early pocket spill was 3 large cents that was last year, the British coin spill is probably coming up on 20 years ago now
