This is my first 1800's coin!! Not sure if it is valuable or not, but it's priceless to me!

I found the coin in a farm field in Illinois! What are the odds! Only the 5th silver coin I've found....3 Mercury dimes and 1 silver quarter.

Three Cent Piece

Given it's condition, I am sure it is worth more to you than the monetary value. They are a rare find and one of the coins that very few of us find. Congratulations on a very special find.
