It was worth going out today...

Found with V3i, 7" deep.

Very nice! I've only found one, 16 years ago.

 

[Seldonskien]

My first half dollar I found was in the same shape as this one except it was a 1941. That was 35 years ago, time flies when you're having fun.

Thats a nice find,going by the remarks i assume that this is not a common coin,so what is special about it ?? i am aware that it was produced during the war years,so can anyone enlighten me please what is special about it.

 

[Frank in NH]

Nothing that special except that they are silver and year I was born! You don't find so many as they are so big and not many were lost compared to dimes, quarters and pennies.

Last beautiful day here in South-central Pa., going to go and see if I can find some more silver before the weather turns. I hope everyone is getting out to vote and then going detecting. Good luck...

Personally, I think it's quite simply the most beautiful coin ever produced by the US mints.

Most beautiful coin--nothing can ring like that lady when spun on a hard table top.
