Hi everyone, I can finally check this one off the list, i finally dug up my first gold coin, Whoo Whoo!! I was detecting a low tide and the first find was a early 1900s silver Canadian dime, hard to read the date, then found the usual junk for awhile and then dug up my first gold coin, i finally did it. At first sight I thought i dug up one of thoes modern thick euro coins that look like gold coins at first and gets your heart beating but im gladd its not the case this time, its the real deal. Thanks for looking and good luck to everone. Whoo Whoo!!

Very nice Sovereign, can't make out if it has a mint mark or whether it is a half or full. Great job though.
