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...

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

So jealous. Congrats. What a beauty
 

Are those some type of foundations in your picture?
 

I hate it when i'm out pulltab shooting and keep digging old gold coins.. :laughing7:

Actually a very special find. Every time I see one of these Banner finds posted I want to grab my detector and try to dig Savannah up some more!

There are more, definately not the last one! 😏

More good luck to ya..

Looks to me like someone did their research to find that site, this is why you were rewarded the 'gold medal' :award_star_gold_1: or in this case a gold coin! :laughing7:

Congratulations on receiving your first BANNER here on Treasure Net! :occasion14:

What vdi number did your deus give you on the gold coin? Did it bounce around or stay steady?

Not sure what the numbers were in the ground, I hunt by sound and use full tones 11kHz and rarely look at the numbers but it was a solid signal that sounded like a "clean" pull tab....pull tab sound but stronger & crisper. It rings up a 64 out of the hole.....
 

Soooo blanking cool! Congrats!
 

Very nice find, CONGRATS
 

What a freakin great day you had!!!! I had a 5hr hunt brought home 2lbs of canslaw and 81 cents in clad. You did a little better than me. But you my friend kicked that earth's butt. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!'

Anytime anyone pops a gold coin I can't help but think about how much someone cried and searched for their loss. What an incredible amount of money in 1925. 5 days of an average persons pay. I bet they wish metal detectors were invented then!!! Very nice score. Congrats
 

your tribe is the coolest! I love those golden chiefs more than any other of your US coins. Great job!
