Yeah, but the problem there is that if the Caesars are put in chronological order, ol' Julius comes in January, not March.
I wouldn't let you buy one. I hereby promise to give you one... if they ever get made.
The date appears to be 1791, though at first glance it looks like 1797. There's something going on in that area, too, under the last two digits....
@Abramthegreat beat me to it.
Very nice, to the coin in the OP. And as to the detecting find, double wow! I'll bet your friend got an adrenaline rush when that puppy popped...
EF-AU sharpness, as mentioned, but with some discoloration. Possibly (but hopefully not) from environmental damage.

I think if you know what you're looking at and you buy smart (as you've done here), you can thrive in any tier of the marketplace. We can't all...
I was close. Was relying on 20+ year old memory, there. Guess I retained that little nugget of info fairly well. I've had a lot of those coins....
Wow, now that is cool.
I would try some acetone on a Q-tip.
Nice. I would concur with the MS63 opinion stated in the OP.
