I decided to hunt a party spot on the lake today here in Southwest Georgia. The water level is low and a lot of the beach is now exposed. About the fourth target in , I pulled something I didn't think I'd ever dig. I've been metal detecting since 1977 and have found several gold rings but never a gold coin. That changed this morning! I hunted for the chain but, was unable to locate it.

Correction on my original post made. - I stated that my gold coin was a 1 Oz coin. Further checking, I found that it is 1/4 Oz. This error was made by me because the bezel is covering the actual weight on the back and the lack of knowledge of gold coins on my part - Rather be honest with you folks.
$600ish coin

Amazing. Determination and follow-up always yield excellent results. Congratulations and more good digging
