Default Going Out With A BANG!!! And A Very Badly Wanted First Off The List! *VIDEO*

Well we are supposed to get 7 inches of snow tommarow so I decided I better get out today. There is a old house I wanted to do so I went and knocked on the door. A gentleman answered and I got a yes. Thanked him and was off. First hit I dig was this 1853 Seated Liberty Half Dime. I cant believe it. My first Seated Coin. I am on cloud 9. I was almost finished with the small yard finding 36 clad cents and this old watch case. (Any Info On A Age Is Apreshiated) Says Providence Watch Case Co. Rolled Plate Then near Bottom it says Swiss then under that 6050213 Then under that 98. The case is hinged and has a nice pattern around it. So anyway as I was just finishing up a lady rounds the corner and says Hello, I say hello back and she says to be honest with you I know my husband said it was ok for you to metal detect but I am alittle uncomfortable with it. So I said OK No problem thanks alot. And Left Happily. Can you believe I stepped Out of the car and walked over to the best coin in the yard right away. Here is a small video of the very happy me digging it up. Finished this year off with a bang and a first...
