Now that is a BIG silver lol What a beauty :smitten: That scratch looks dull and may have been there before you dug it, so I'm not sure you dinged it :thinkingabout: That was an amazing day's hunt Dave !! |:confused:) |:confused:) |:confused:)

Another congrats buddy! :clapping:
She is a beauty. I really don't think you hit it with your digger.
I noticed that scratch when I was admiring the coin. A fresh scratch on an old
silver coin will be nice and bright. The scratch here is the same tone as the rest of the coin.
My guess is the scratch is almost as old as the coin. :yes:
Super find Dave! <:
