WOW! Papa Bear you just keep getting them up. I've been told of a house site that there are some silver dollars in the dirt. I'am just looking to get in there and get me some. Very Nice. HH

Looks like you beat out a lot of people- Finding something that even these seasoned hunters havent found yet is a very cool thing! You might think it's luck but you picked the machine, learned it and picked a primo spot to apply that knowledge!

For such a large coin it seems to elude a lot of us diligent hunters! Congrats on a great find!

Congrats on the Morgan. I joined the Morgan club within the last year with a 1885 prior to that I had found a 1911 Chinese Silver Dollar but no American dollars. It is very exciting to see that large silver disc in the dirt. I hope you find many more...
