    50 or so nickel signals....then...

    I was hunting at the 47 acres this afternoon. I was behind the hunting cabin. I dug about the 50th signal for a pull tab/nickle, and up came an 1879 $5.00 Gold Piece!!!! I was freaking out. I swear that Winchester must have heard me scream "Look what I found". Winchester is about 4 miles away. This place is finally paying off.

    This is my bst find ever. I'm really on cloud 9.

    Re: 50 or so nickel signals....then...

    That's awsome!

    Is it me or is it the year of the gold coin?

    There's been a hand full already this year here on TNet and it's only mid-May!

    That's it! It must be my turn I guess. Anyone else want to join in on the "2007 Gold Coin Club"?

    Congrats Digginman!
    Happy Hunting!

    That is a beautiful coin! Congratulations. Wow, I don't know what I'd do if I found one like that. I'd probably die from shock! Again just proves the old admonition - DIG EVERY SIGNAL.

    (And if somebody doesn't know it yet - tune your detector so nickels sing out because nickels and gold are in the same range.)

    Thanks, Copperhead. It was only about 5 inches deep. I've only been digging deeper signals. Anything shallower than 3 is usually a pulltab. Hunting property, lots of beer drinking. I usually hunt all metal and dig alot!!!

    Thanks for asking.
