the other larger two not far form them.
dug the 13 round balls from the same hole with a 4 1/2 ft eastern diamondback sitting less than 6 feet from me
the whole time, had one eye in my hole and one on him ...

I've never seen one of those before, and it's not everyday we can pull a 1700's piece, so, I'm adding that bad boy to the banner. Congrats! Yes Amazing coin, terrific condition. Thanks for keeping me inspired since I haven't had much time to hunt lately, Bones!

P.S. - Almost looks like a half penny.

Wow. Thank you Joe, and everyone. 
pulled that one up quick swinging on my way home. i`ll be back at the spot
early A.M. sharp to swing around that area very slow ...
Thank you for the comments. and, thank you Joe for giving it a home up top.
pretty happy about this find.
did a little research on this token, from what i read there are very few samples
that do not have the large die crack through the back .
i have found 5 samples without the crack online .
does anyone have any further book info on this token. without the die crack ....

thanks again everyone.
