Congrats on that find. :occasion14: I am a little reserved since it is only your 2nd post and must admit I am a little skeptical too. I know I would have dropped the camera and went right into my happy dance hootin and a hollerin if I dug that coin.

That things gorgeous! I'd be glad to take it off your hands so you can get some sleep. There's no way I could film that. The camera would have been the furthest thing from my mind.

You deserve EVERY BIT of fame that your gloating deserves. A lot of hunters go their entire career without finding a gold coin. It's the "hole in one" of md'ing ! And you skipped right past pesky $5s and $10s, and went straight to a $20 no less :) I vote banner !
