My dad once again has to take credit for securing these houses,what once was 3 late 1800's houses,which now are 1,thanks to past hurricanes.the owner secured one side property after, The one remaining house was way outta place with the rest of the homes built in the time period,so of course ,my thinking was there was money living there,first pic is the garbage
[
then of course there is the treasure
[
I looked it up in redbook,does the 3rd lowest mintage make it a semi key date or no

Enjoy

You didn't believe me? Ahhh.

Slowevo- as long as your happy doing what your do'n & enjoying it, that's all that matters. No haters, let it go.
No one can take your happiness away.

I will probably never make banner doesn't matter, my next target could be the find of a life time ,or a pop top, of course it would help if they start gold plating those pop tops!

Nice Find Slowwevo !! How long have you been digging? I had a killer run of beginners luck when I started. When you first saw it did you think it was a toy token or plastic gimmick thing?
That's what I thought when I saw my first laying in the mud, then I picked it up and realized Ohmygoodnessgraciousitsagoldcoin !!! Congrats and keep em coming :laughing7:

What does a gold coin like that hit as on your detector? Pull tab? Penny? Quarter? I often wondered but haven't came across any yet :laughing7:
