First coin, And what a coin it was.

[James6t6]

I took my week old AT Pro out to Coney Island today. I would've never imagined finding what I did on a beach that's so heavily searched and filled with trash.
I haven't found a coin yet, not even a penny.
Five steps onto the beach and I hear that beautiful ding. Two inches down I find my first coin, it's a dime!

Falling over backwards here in CA -- WOW! What an amazing coin for your first dug coin! You seem to have an intuition that will serve you well now & in the future! Looking forward to seeing what you dig next. Have fun! Andi

Wow took me 30 years to find my first Seated coin, I am definitely in the wrong place!

Nice job James! It doesn't get much better than that, take a few steps and find an awesome keeper and one in decent condition at that. I'm still waiting for my first seated. Just got access to a couple of old foundations, so maybe...

Geez, my first find was a pull tab, 2nd on a bottle cap, up to about 25 or so......

Great find!!!
