I bet your still smiling from ear to ear. If I found a U S coin that old, I would not sleep for a long time, just thinking about it. Congrats on the half cent

Thanks Chris it was a farm house circa 1792. It is on the grounds of a house that we had permission to hunt!! The coin was about 4 inches down and rang up between a penny and a dime on the ACE 250!! Not a lot was found at this site but what was found was good a friend of mine got a George the 2nd and a George the 3rd!! Thanks for looking again!!
