Wow DM!! Don't know how I missed this post,probably cause your subject line didn't indicate what you found,just a question mark.Anyway,HOOOOLY!!!That is one awesome coin!!! Glad I could join you in the club!!I always figured someone in my group would find a gold piece but for some reason I always envisioned a five dollar piece and you got one!! I always envisioned an indian head but yours is even better!!! Anyway I told you I'd find this,and a big bravo to you!!! Bootstrap

That is freakin' awesome!

I think it's interesting how this hobby can be quite relaxing. I mean, for me, I can feel my blood pressure dropping as I sweep the coil back and forth. And the type of exercise is the sort of kind we humans were meant for, squatting, stooping, digging, swinging sticks. But I'd have to say a find like this would send my blood pressure and heart rate soaring. :o

So, aside from the screaming, did you feel some serious adrenaline or what?

So that was you I heard screaming all the way out here in San Diego, Ca. I couldn't tell if it was agony or ecstasy. I would have screamed too as soon as I woke up from passing out with a find like that. LOL. Congrats and HH. Ted

I was hunting at the 47 acres this afternoon. I was behind the hunting cabin. I dug about the 50th signal for a pull tab/nickle, and up came an 1879 $5.00 Gold Piece!!!! I was freaking out. I swear that Winchester must have heard me scream "Look what I found". Winchester is about 4 miles away. ;D This place is finally paying off.

This is my bst find ever. I'm really on cloud 9. Wow a real nice find....WTG
