Today was the first nice day we have had in a while, so I headed back to the property I recently got permission to hunt. Last time, I hunted the woods, but today I ventured closer to the house.

Aside from the normal trash and bits & pieces, here are my finds for the day!

1970 Quarter............. 1969 Penny........ 1983 Nickel......... AND THE KILLER FIND OF THE DAY: a 1980 1 OUNCE of FINE GOLD Krugerrand from South Africa
1971 Quarter .............1975 penny........ VA 280 Seal ........ I had never heard of this coin before, so I took it to my jeweler friend who verified it is in fact gold.
1979 Quarter............. 1976 Penny ...................................My heart is still pounding!
1981 Quarter............. 1980 Penny
................................1983 Penny

Those are some nice finds. The gold coin set the bar really high for the rest of the year. Good luck in your future hunts. Congrats and banner vote.

Hi, oh wow awesome gold coin you found:notworthy::occasion14: Congrats. Cant even imagine the travel history behind that Kruger gold coin and how it ended up there by you. The gold Kruger Rand and Kruger Pound is one of my top bucket listers i am still looking for here in South Africa. Its very hard finding those gold coins.

Thank you very much Brenden. It really would be fun to know the "hows, whens, wheres, and whys" surrounding this, but I guess it will remain a mystery. Good luck in your quest!

PS...I Forgot To Say...BANNER!!

Thank you very much, Kace. The prospect of making the banner this go around is fading with each tick of the clock, but I appreciate your vote. I am not sure what I will find to top it, but who knows what that next beep will yield!

Thank you Mr. Digger! I have never seen one posted here before either. In fact, I didn't even know there was such a thing until I dug this one! Thanks for the vote!:icon_thumleft:

What an excellent find. We don't see those posted here to often, but then again how many people carried a coin like that in their pocket ?

In the words of my HS basketball coach in 1975:
"That didn't suck, son"

Nicely done!
