Really good find! Down here the cotton mills paid off in silver dollars, but I've only found one!

that is good info going to have to do some research ...we had more tobacco and turkey farms up here in Virginia way but good ideas percolating...find that juke/fiddler joint where they spent all their money

This is a once in a LIFETIME find !! 30 + years hunting to include almost everything from Roman to Modern and I have never found a silver dollar, I voted BANNER, simply because of its rarity and I congratulate you on a fantastic find of a lifetime !!

I said this in another forum, but will say it here.. I believe its rare for two reasons... ONE .. Probably most people did not carry such big coins around with them on a daily basis, and TWO... If someone were to drop or lose a coin that size, then anyone around or nearby almost certainly could see such a large coin before it gets buried... That's my take and I'm sticking too it..

Was this a beach find ? looks like salt water sand on that coin !!

Was definitely in water and could be fresh water find as well, imo. Congratulation's and welcome to the silver dollar club.
GW button would be nice but over here, doubtful, so my want is a gold coin.
With your luck running nicely this early in the year who knows what you'll pop out.

Congrats on getting that monkey off your back.
Still looking for my first one-been wanting to find one now for over 50 years.
It was the first want I ever had-still gathering dust on the back.

Nice! I've found 3 Morgans, but, I haven't found a Peace dollar yet.

Nice gold ring, and I see the Merc, but is that also an Indian head penny?

 

[oldmxrat]

That gold ring with the stones looks rather old, very nice!

Congratulations you done well! I have found many half dollars but not one silver dollar in 40 years of hunting!
