🥇 BANNER After 21 years of detecting it FINALLY happened.....1st Gold Coin!!!!

[Chuck Norris]

Yup.....that's right.....after 21 years of detecting and digging what seems like a bazillion holes I finally popped my first gold coin!!! I won't bore you all with a long story.....I'll keep it simple....

Chuck Norris kicked the mountain's butt and took its gold....then the mountain came back for more and I took its silver too....the end

This is where I was hunting...

1925-D 2 1/2 dollar Indian.....its a little worn and has a few scratches and dings but I don't care

The rest of the coins from this area

Went home and showed my wife and then my buddy called so I met him at an old school yard for a little spin.....didn't really care what I found...but found a few pesky wheats, a Buffalo nickel and a cocaine spoon...old dog tag and ball button are from the earlier woods hunt

Got a tribe if injuns......the HARD way....just the way Chuck Norris likes it


Thanks for looking guys & gals.......now get out there and go find you some

Sweet gold nice coin!!

 

[Scrappy]

When you wrestled with the grid bear, did you kill it and sleep in the Carcass like a true warrior? I'm glad to hear you smashed boulders and felled trees with your beautiful roundhouse kicks. Cheers

Steve

Congrats on finding the white whale...something we're all chasing. It sure is a beauty.

 

[Argentium]

Is it possible that this rare find , obsolete US two and a half dollar gold piece - has not received enough banner votes ? Seriously ??

 

[Joe hunter]

That's absolutely gorgeous

It did like your post the other night, but it would be wrong not to congratulate you!

The 'site' / 'area' pictures look like a fairly random spot, but I assume your research got you to that spot?

What the heck is a cocaine spoon? Just a little spoon?

This is the first time Chuck Norris has ever made me jealous.
What a great find, I just want to know what it sounded like and that I'm still digging pop tabs for greed instead of just to be Earth friendly.

Chuck Norris doesn't find gold, Gold finds Chuck Norris!
