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!!! ???

TF, congrats that is awesome. I think silver dollars are rare to find because of their size and weight. Think about it, you don't drop one of those without realizing it. Great find and a great date!

That's totally awesome :headbang:

Congrats, it's going to be hard to beat that, but you'll do it, there's many firsts in metal detecting, most when you least expect them :thumbsup:

Congratulations on the Morgan, Treasurefiend! That thing looks like a frisbee!

It looks like there's some green patina on the back...almost like there was something copper in the hole with it.

Looks like it could be the size of a large cent too. Go back in that hole TF! I'll bring the sump pump :laughing7:
