Back at the 1727 road in the field, went towards the back of the field where I hadn't been before, nothing really but a little bit of lead bits, and then a loud crazy can signal, I figured I would dig it so it wouldn't get cut up in a hundred pieces when they plow next year. And holy crap! Biggest silver yet! And a Carson City! I think I hit the rim a little

Wowsers, that's a big silver! There's no feeling quite like holding a massive old silver coin in your palm.

Congrats. I've never found a $1 coin, not even a clad.
