Hit A new spot today and was hoping to find some copper. My very first signal was a 1951 nickle and then about 10 minutes later I got a high tone on the E-trac bouncing all over giving coin numbers 1-46 12-48 and some other numbers in between so I figured a copper lawn sprinkler. I dig down and see a big silver!!!!! I was like cool Morgan Dollar. Then I picked it up and the dirt dropped off and I saw the most Beautiful coin Ive ever dug!!!!!! A Draped Bust Half Dollar!!! I was so happy I started to shake and all I could say is omg omg omg its a Draped Bust!!!! I got this one on video but Im not sure if I will post because I just lost control and made an Idiot out of myself. Thanks for looking HH

That is amazing!!What is even more awesome is there are no,"finger smudge",scratches or scratches of any kind,which is RARE with a dug coin.GOOD JOB!!!
I wish I could say that's true but there are normal fine scratches from moving through the ground for over 200 hundred years. Defiantly no scratches from thumbing my coin!!!!!!!!!!!!! HH
