Hi folks wow what a day ive had woke up feeling c**p and was meant to be going detecting early like i normally do but i stayed in bed but by 12.30 i was bored as hell so i went out on some pasture which i have done for years( 3 years) got my xp deus out for the boot and notice that i didnt have my head phones which i thought anyways got on the field and within 10mins i didnt have any good signals but then i have this screaming signal from the Deus box so i dug the plug of grass and turn it over and this GOLD HAMMERED was just laying there no joke i cried my eyes out for a good 5mins like a little baby i only cried as my late father always said jimmy you found any gold yet when he was alive and when he passed which was 11months ago today and ive always wanted to find some gold didnt have to be old gold just some gold so i can make him proud of me and today is my day my first ever gold item and its hammmered this day cant get any better ive only being detecting for just 3 years and i have put in 1000s of hours in and it have paid off

i was using a XP Deus 12Hz on GMP Mode and it was 3inchs on pasture aswel

the coin is a JAMES 1ST Quarter-laurel Minted in 1624ish

It isn't luck that you would find that gold coin Jimmy and if no one understands that let me tell you I know what you feel.
You see it was your Dad that gave you an insight as to what time and place that you were supose to be at in order for you to find your first gold coin. That's why he had ask you if you had found any yet.
That piece is your Dad saying to you that he is proud of you and that you should never give up on your hopes and dreams while you yet live. I would take care of it Jimmy and keep it close always.
 

thank you people really kind of you all <3
