Awesome! That coin looks like it has been in the ground for a very long time. Can you tell the story of the find? What kind of place, signal, how deep?

it was at a county park thats been around since the 1800s. i was doing some hunting along the grass line where there wouldn't seem to be much activity and i got a signal which usually turns out to be large trash but im one of those who diggs EVERYTHING, and about 2 or 3 in deep was this morgan dollar.
