🥇 BANNER Once in a lifetime find. Double Eagle

[Dreams]

I started hunting a spot that had been a logging camp in the early 1900's. I had been finding axe heads, square nails and many other period items. As it turned out I eventually found several coins over a long period of hunting this place. The first coin I found there was a Barber dime. To date I have found this Double Eagle, a Half Eagle. 3 Morgan dollars, 2 Barber half dollars, 1 Barber quarter, 3 Barber dimes, 1 Buffalo nickel and a 1915 spoon from the Pan Pacific Exposition in San Francisco.

It was quite the rush. I had dug the two Barber halves the day before in the same hole together. The next day I got the Double Eagle. I was shaking!

BANNER !!
I'm speechless; a fantastic coin in mint condition.
If it grades MS-65, you can consider retiring.

Great finds! It really shows the importance of good recovery technique too. Imagine how you would feel if you scratched one of these babies with a digger.
