Been hunting over a mile road & sidewalk tearout, been working this for over a month. Trying to find time to post my incredible finds from this, just a little overwhelming on the magnitude of my finds to get it done. Hopefully it will be finished soon, it will posted as "MY MIRACLE MILE". To excited to wait on todays find, this strip has been bulldozed over 3 times and the dirt is differant everytime I go here. I have detected the area I found this dollar over ten times. Today was my lucky day! Got a dollar signal that was bouncing back & forth between Nickel and dollar. Know its a nail I thought, might as well get it out of here. Dug about 4" and pulled out a giant nail, which this area is coverd with. Checked hole again and dollar signal came over loud and clear on my GTA 1000. Dug another 2" nothing, stuck my pinpointer in the hole down another 1" of to one side. Loosened the dirt and grabbed a handful. At first thought I had a huge slug until I seen the Eagle on the rear. I knew I had a Peace dollar finally after over 15 years of detecting. I had to tell my self to breath!. Turned her over and seen some scratches across her face. S#$T! But I soon realized they were already on there, maybe from earler bulldozing. I thought who cares! When I got home just rinsed with water and light scrub with toothbrush to see date and mint. Foumd date, cant find a mint mark. Soon realized I had a key date coin. Afraid now to touch the thing but I really want to see it cleaned up. Guess I'll have to wait after I get it authenticated. Anyways keep eye out for my post on this month long hunt hopefully coming soon.
