I was using my new Garrett at max in a area I have hit a million times with the pro. Then my first signal was a 50-60 so, I dug it and it was the gold dollar. And also found a few 3 ring miniballs and a thimble

Make sure you weigh it and compare to original weight. There are many many real gold fakes of this coin. This one does look spot on. Congrats!

Super nice. Those things are tiny and most times you can't find them unless they are very shallow.
