I posted a picture of it to the metal detecting page on Facebook and they advised me to get it checked as apparently they believe it's one of the elusive dot versions. I do see what looks like a dot where it's supposed to be but don't want to get my hopes up as from what I have been told there are supposed to be only 5 known to exist here is a photo if you all could tell me what you think! Thanks in advance! Report this Post to the Staff

Keep searching though, many of our other members have found some nice coins metal detecting. There is even a metal detecting forum on this site you may be interested in looking at.

I really doubted it was one to begin with as the chanc3s of getting struck by lightning or winning the lottery multiple times would be better than finding that coin lol I appreciate the help :) Report this Post to the Staff
