Thanks all. Its not my first gold coin. But I am not a coin hunter. Came from a town founded in the 1860's. Was in a horse pasture in the town that has never been built on. You can see a video of some of the other coins on my YouTube Channel.

Incredible! I've not seen one of those posted on here since been following. Congrats! Someday I will cross paths with a gold coin... and I will most likely pass it up thinking it's a pull tab!!!!!
