Dontcha just love those hallelujah signals?

[WHADIFIND]

I was just trying to grab a fix today, clad, etc.
The day was pretty fair, the ground only slightly frozen
in places.

When LO & BEHOLD! A hallelujah hit! 91 VDI
in all directions! It sounded so good I just kept
dancing around the target, listening to the wonderfulness!

Oh, I know.....solid brass fitting, bolt, nut, even hot wheels
cars sound like this sometimes. But, I was living the moment
and dreaming.

I wish you guys could've seen my face when I finally
flipped the plug over:





Oh well......it sure was fun while it lasted.
Besides, it's a very nice thing knowing that my partner
is still talking to me.




Couple of decent, surprise buckles.



Ya know, this might be the closest I ever come to finding an
actual gold coin.



At least it brightened everybody's day. The
kids are happy. The nitro has worked.

And....after all, it *is* 24 kt gold plated!
Guess I'm safe in calling this my first gold for the year.

Thanks for peeking folks! Get out there! It's all just waiting.

Nice digs, congratulations! I had many of those heavenly tones today. Each one putting a smile on my face only to be crashed upon the rocks of reality. Bottle caps!

I hope that was all they lost that day.

That XXIV means 24kt,, right? ? lol
Congrats on getting out.

Don't worry you will find a gold coin one day its just the matter of standing on top of it. Still hunting for mine I also got a iffy gold a 2 peso 1945 :P

 

[trapperart]

Congrats on a successful walk

Funny, but I was thinking the same thing. I could just see somebody who fell off the wagon and
chucked this coin as far as they could.

That XXIV means 24kt,, right? ? lol

No, that's for 24 years but, I found the exact match online. And, it is 24kt plated.

Nice walk, here's mine (bronze)

WHY TREB! I never knew! Congrats!

Not so easy as one might think. I've been sober for 24 years! Of course, I don't drink but, that's just a detail.
I tell my friends that and they all react the same way, "YOU??!!?? don't drink!?!?!? "

Nice "Recovery" LOL

Barump Bump!

Nice going! I'm getting my 5-year coin next month, look forward to getting one like yours. Thanks for sharing

 

[Wildcat1750]

Nice find! That 24 year coin meant a lot to the person who lost it. Hopefully he continues to collect the series. A buddy of mine just got his 1 year and carries it with pride.

Hi Folks; This June 11th will be my 35 Years Sober & Clean. May God Bless the person who lost that coin. I am also very glad to see so many fellow AAers & NAers here as well. May God Bless You All. PEACE:RONB
