1773 Coin! We went detecting at a local public school close to my house. The area is OLD but the school isn't that old. The main road use to be the main stage coach road way back in the day. Congrats again Chris!

That's why I hunt alone LOL I'd be just as jealous, if not more! Happy Hunting and your 1700's is out there waiting for you to find it! Good Luck!

LOL, I would have been wondering if it was a wind up too. Haha. That's a great find. Just goes to show you the dirt has a mind of It's own! Congrats to Logan of his first silver! Looks like you got to do the drive home of shame today. =D

Priceless look on your face. I had to laugh at that look of "fun" disgust. Great hunt, and finds guys. Scott

Great video as usual. Logan's ring is a fantastic find, and so is Chris's coin.

Excellent! That is indeed a King George III Colonial Half-Penny, issue between 1770 and 1775.

I've metal detected some but by no means have I ever really got into it! Anyway I do enjoy it and that's enough to get me to seriously reconsider. That 1700 was Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Metal detecting is a wondrous skill. Very interesting. Aieee!

Had I been on that hunt, I would still be out there on that playground, and I would still be asking "Did you really just find that?" Awesome coin, and congrat's to the boy on his outstanding dig..925 is good.

Congrats to the finds! I love the old coin find! My youngest made his first silver find last weekend. Good luck to your 2014 hunts! -Jeff
