    MORGAN DOLLAR!!!!!

    Went out with DDub today for a 6hr hunt today and we ran into BillT, the finds were few and far between but we managed to find some goodies. My best was when I got another nail signal (bouncing from iron to coin) and figured what they heck, let me dig it just to see what it is. I couldn't pinpoint the signal so I did "the minelab wiggle" to guesstimate where the target was. I was flippin dirt out when I seen a LARGE disc laying in front of me and starter yelling as loud as I could for DDub & BillT to come over, just then I thought to myself man this will be funny if I'm wrong and its just a makeup compact! I never thought I would find a silver dollar and man am I pumped!!!!!

    The really weird thing is this year I have found a 1892 dime, quarter, half, & now a dollar!?!?! Must be my lucky year or something!!!

    Re: MORGAN DOLLAR!!!!!

    Thanks guys, im still pumped!!! I worked lastnight 8hrs and got an hour's sleep before I went detecting with Dan and since I been home I was only able to get 2hrs of sleep - and im here again working an 8hr shift!!! Too pumped to sleep

    I honestly don't know if I will be able to find another coin to top this, gold coin would do it for sure but they even rarer than Morgans!!!
