Doesn't happen to have a D mint-mark does it? Not a lot of those were ever minted, and the Dahlonega minting in and of itself would make it more valuable (as a keeper and in value).

JDug, to find a gold coin is the "hole in one" of metal detecting. Congradulations. You have now ascended to "stud-muffin" status
