Ok it has been a very good day. First of all I found out this morning that I won a Garrett Pro Pointer then my buddy Dustin Miller and I go to a house that was built in 1824 and pound some dirt for a couple of hours. Well there were 2 coins I thought I would never get but today I got them. The first is a 1851 3 cent piece, second unknown date shield nickel, and third I got a 1906 V Nickel which this one is a second for me. WOW what a day!!!! I also found a very old saddle stirrup. I will post a photo of it later.

Very good day indeed
 
Me jealous! Dying for a 3 center. Good for you. Congrats on winning the Pro Pointer. I won one recently too. Super stoked!
 
Wooo-Hoooo! Big Grats!!!!:icon_thumright:
 
Amazing find!!!
 
Your one lucky dude. Maybe you should hurry up and buy a lottery ticket too! :laughing7:
 
Great Finds !..I would love to find a Shield or 3 Cent piece....congrats on your pinpointer too!
 
Awesome finds! I'm still looking for my first pre-clad coin...a three cent would be a killer way to start!
 
Nice finds! Bet your heart skipped a beat when you found your first 3 cent piece:) Congrats!
 
Thanks everyone. Ok now for how I found the 3 cent piece. It was an eye find! I didn't believe it either but i guess when Brooke (daughter) and I was at the same house on Saturday, one of us dug it which it was probably her and it was stuck to her shovel and fell off! It was clean when I found it which puzzled me. I then figured that out also. When we were there Saturday we had to leave because it started raining hard so I guess the rain washed everything off of it.
 
Yes my heart skipped a beat and I found myself hooting and hollaring like those guys on diggers! LOL It was pretty embarrassing but i haven't felt like that since I was a kid!
 
Awesome dude!
 
Awsome day ground pounding! congrats!
 
Big congrats on the finds. 3-centers are a rush to find!
 
Love the 3-center. Congrats! Were most of your finds in the front yard?
