Went out with DDub today for a 6hr hunt today and we ran into BillT, the finds were few and far between but we managed to find some goodies. My best was when I got another nail signal (bouncing from iron to coin) and figured what they heck, let me dig it just to see what it is. I couldn't pinpoint the signal so I did "the minelab wiggle" to guesstimate where the target was. I was flippin dirt out when I seen a LARGE disc laying in front of me and starter yelling as loud as I could for DDub & BillT to come over, just then I thought to myself man this will be funny if I'm wrong and its just a makeup compact! :tongue3: I never thought I would find a silver dollar and man am I pumped!!!!!

The really weird thing is this year I have found a 1892 dime, quarter, half, & now a dollar!?!?! Must be my lucky year or something!!! ???

Great find!! I remember how excited I was to find mine. 1888P. I thought my eyes were deceiving me. I'd love to relive that feeling. Congratulations

Awesome find man!!! :headbang: Fyi I'm new here and I've seen probably all of your videos on youtube and found them both informative and entertaining. You guys should come out to the New England area for a colonial hunt!

Re: MORGAN DOLLAR!!!!! 1892s

Thanks guys, im still pumped!!! I worked lastnight 8hrs and got an hour's sleep before I went detecting with DDub and since I been home I was only able to get 2hrs of sleep - and im here again working an 8hr shift!!! Too pumped to sleep :tongue3: :tongue3: :tongue3: :tongue3: :tongue3:

I honestly don't know if I will be able to find another coin to top this, gold coin would do it for sure but they even rarer than Morgans!!! :icon_pirat: :icon_pirat: :icon_pirat:

TreasureFiend~ Now thats what I am talking about Brother!!! :thumbsup:

I would loose my mind to dig a Big Old Morgan. She's in beautiful shape too. Kudos for not rubbing that monster. It is hard to have restraint when your holding a treasure like that. Enjoyed your video. Keep up the good work. :notworthy:
