Had an hour to kill tonight,, so I went to a farm field where an old house once stood about a mile from my house... The farmer just chisled the ground and it's ready to plant corn,,,I wasn't there hardly 5 minutes and got a 92-93 VDI at 2"... M6 was screaming at me! Dug the dirt up and saw half a disk sticking out,, I figured it was an aluminum bottle cap,,, picked it up and saw the words STATES OF and in God we trust!! My first Morgan Dollar 1900o,,, SWEET!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Kept going and got a 1950 Rosie sitting on edge right on top of the ground.... Gonna hit this field hard and fast before the corn starts popping up!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Sweet is right!
 
Very nice Morgan. Here's my 1901-O found at an old bunkhouse site demolished 40+ years ago note the pitting throughout from the alkali soil.

Sweet Coin. I always wondered how you could lose one of those.... but then I think back to 1996 at a movie theater in Spokane Wa. I used to carry an 1878 Morgan in my wallet for good luck. During the movie, I pulled out my wallet and the coin fell out. I heard it hit the floor and roll all the way to the bottom of the theater. It was a concrete floort so I could hear it well. I looked for it when the movie ended but it was gone.
 
Amazing, WTG !!

Keep @ it and HH!!
