My only gold coin so far.

Found my best coin in 2008 after or during seawall restoration, they really dug up the beach that year and all kinds of things turned up.

WTG,leprechaun that is such a beautiful coin,I would've just spend it & bought me some candy back then--didn't know any better or just thought money was just money,but now since I've gotten in this hobby--I hope & pray to find a gold coinI've learned a little about old coins & the value,but the thrill of finding an old coin is PricelessI now appreciate the value of the history of old coins-took me 54 years.My old coin to date is Miss Liberty which I will never know the date on itb/c of salt water or me killing it with electrolysis Oh well,,HH

awesome to find a gold coin, my only hope will be in gold sovereigns - I hope to find one someday. must be the luck of the Irish - some of my family came to Oz from Cork in 1835.
