You hunt a site that has given 1800 dated coins before. It's lots of hard work finding one good signal, then that dirt clod post-dig pings a tone with the final sweep of the coil after the dig.
It's tempting to tear it apart like a Christmas package when you were a child, but ain't is special to linger and take time to reveal an edge, and guess what it is?
I hunted with a buddy today, was called over to check the signal, the dig gave the final clod giving tone with the pinpointer. Gradually took off an edge and saw the silver reed. A second small piece removed at the edge...there was the sight of a Seated's skirt.
We both guessed it's ID at every stage, first, it was a Barber, then "The edge looks thinner than a Barber", "No it's probably a Barber".
A special part of the fun is had, IMO, with the unwrapping
