What a morning! I was 3 hours north of home detecting for the second day on a very old permission site. I found a few Wheaties at the start. About an hour and a half into the hunt I got a very sweet signal. I dug a plug, dropped in the pin pointer, and knew whatever it was was deeper. And then it happened. My 1st pre-1900 coin, a seated liberty dime from 1874. What a great feeling. My hands were actually shaking as I cleaned it off. I noticed that someone apparently made a necklace out of it as there’s a hole in it. Fine by me. It’s mine now! The ride home was nothing but smiles.
