🥇 BANNER Ten Dollar Gold Piece - I'm still in shock!!

[vpone]

So still in shock here guys, was out detecting an old road looking for a colonial spot we though was close and got a solid 24 on my Equinox 800. Dug down about 5" and saw this laying in the hole. Can't remember much after that but my buddy said I was jumping up and down and yelling "Holy S---" over and over - when I finally calmed down I just said "gold" and opened my hand to show him .... his mouth just dropped

It is HUGE and she is a beaut!!

Central PA - one of my old detecting grounds. I found a couple of corroded large cents out there once.

Super-congratulations on this one. I wouldn't be so surprised if it came out of California, but finding a coin like that in central PA is a dream. Also, congratulations on not going into cardiac arrest when you dug it! You have a healthy heart!
