🥇 BANNER My First Gold Coin! Need help idenifining please!,

[JamesR1964]

Hello all. I'm still shaking as I write this. I'll try and keep this short. I bought a new Whites PI about 3 months ago. The 1st month I found a old silver ring very deep. After that and a couple of weeks of trying to figure how it works. Nothing but junk and very little of that I may add. I started to regret buying it. Come to find out the coil was bad right out of the box. Whites replaced it and had me going. Thanks to there awesome service. I went out to my spot where there was and old hotel back in the 1700s or so. I've been hunting low tide about a 100+ yards out. I get a hit and I'm thinking a ring by the sound of the tone. I look in the scoop and to my surprise I see what I think is a toasted dime. (Wrong) it's my first gold coin. Small in size. But incredibly real. The front has a Indian head princess with the United States Of America written on it and the back has some kind of design that I can't make out. I can't find one like it on line. So any of you who mite know I would appreciate any help. It's in really good shape except for a small ding on the edge. Not done by me. For those of you who has found a gold coin. I know how you feel. Those of you who have not. Don't give up! Happy and safe hunting to all of my brother and sister hunters! Thank you James

Congrats on the banner my friend! I know I'm just adding to the chorus but: Amazing find!! What a cool piece of history. Someone took some time to make that for someone they really cared about, now, all these years later, its in your hands. So cool.

Thank you so much for sharing! I feel the engraving is quite well done and would suspect it might be some stylized initials, no matter as very nice engraving. Then a gold coin as well! That is a special fine indeed! Congratulations...........63bkpkr

Congratz. Love-token making was a fad back at the time of the same era. Hence not someone's modern jewelry (like as if a coin mounted in a bezzle, that could have been lost yesterday, etc...). The practice was in vogue back in those times, contemporary with circulation. So in my opinion, those count as coins, not jewelry. You are now officially a stud-muffin! The hole-in-one holy grail find of all md'rs, is to find gold coins.

Knocked two off the bucket list there. Gold coin and love token. Congrats on the banner.

 

[JamesR1964]

Thank you! Thank you all! I'm so honored to be given a banner for this find. It's still so surreal to have found it. It's something I will cherish for a long long time. I hope each and everyone of you gets to find something like this. Once again! Thank you all. James
