I'm loving that 1818 Half-Sovereign. What price can you pick one of those up for?

Demarco - I picked up that half-sovereign for about £30, but that was a long time ago!

The nearest equivalent I could find in an internet search was one in VG/NF that fetched £220 recently at London Coin Auctions...

Great Britain 1817 sixpence - I found this one metal-detecting in a field. I daresay some poor Georgian farmworker had to do without his ale for a few days...

Wow NumisRob - Location is everything. The oldest thing I have found metal-detecting in North Dakota and Alberta is a silver dime from the 50's. (1950's, that is!)

Location indeed is everything. It may also work against you. I may find plenty of old metal over here, unfortunately it most likely are bombshells. I live awfully close to the former trenches of WW-I.
