Big Silver found today!

[TejasDigger]

There's a park not that far from my house that I have kind of been avoiding. I found a War Nickel there a couple months ago, but it's in a bad neighborhood and there's a lot of trashy targets around. Well, I decided to give it another shot last friday and found a 1949 quarter along with a 1944s Wheaty. The park was established in the late thirties, so I knew it had some potential for some fairly old coins as long as you hunted the right spots. Today I went back out there with a friend and found a 1926s Peace Silver Dollar about five inches down. I couldn't believe it and didn't expect it to actually be a dollar even though that's what my machine was saying. I handed it to my buddy and he rubbed it to see the date . I guess he didn't know any better. The only other negative thing about it is someone scratched "POP" on it. I guess it may have been a gift, but I still think it was dropped a long time ago because of the depth. Here are the pictures of the silver quarter from Friday and the silver dollar from today:
Here's a link for youtube when I dug it:

WTG!! Every time I get a dollar signal I never get my hopes too far up, its almost always junk copper or something. But occasionally its a small pocket spill, so you gotta dig it for sure!

Nice!!! Yea, a lot of times deep coins, no matter what they are will read as a dollar coin on my DFX. One time I was getting a solid half dollar signal and I laughed because it almost never is, thinking I had a lid, and it turned out to be a Franklin half! So it just goes to show trust the noise not the picture

Thanks for the comments guys. This signal was different though. A lot of times you'll get a dollar signal and try and pin point it and it will seem as though the target is too big. I could tell it was some type of coin size object when I pin pointed it. I was happy to see that it was a silver dollar.

I added a youtube video to this post because I recorded a little when I dug it.

Congrats TD, you don't see those dug up very often

I've had many dollar signals, but they've all been junk or cans, although I'm getting to the point where I'll almost always raise my coil on those now to test if it's a can

HH,
