🥇 BANNER First GOLD COIN Today from the Field of Dreams!!!!!!

[oxbowbarefoot]

While heading out this morning to the Field of Dreams to meet up with Greylock, I knew it was going to be difficult to top last weekends Charles I Hammered Silver Penny, but I was hoping my good luck would continue. I got to the fields a little after sunrise. Hunting was slow for a while, a musket ball here, a broken Crotal bell there, until Greylock and I headed into an area of cut corn that I haven't ever spent a lot of time in. As I approached a high point in the field, I heard a strange low scratchy signal on my XP Deus. As I kicked the corn husks aside, I saw something shiny and round. This wasn't the shine of silver, it was the shine of GOLD! Looking right up at me from its resting place on top of the dirt was my FIRST GOLD COIN! I couldn't believe it. I called Greylock over to see and tried to get BrokenKnee's (who had just pulled in) attention. I didn't find much the rest of the day, but I was PUMPED. I did manage a couple Indian Cents, and a 1870's German 10 Pfenning. I never expected to find a gold coin in a farm field. Maybe I didn't surpass my hammered silver, but I think I equalled it! I can't wait to see what's next to be found in the "Field of Dreams."

The coin is a 1874 Gold $1.

Big Congrats oxbow barefeet , aside for a few iron buckles and a Mass. button , the finds are 90 % coins .
Your bud, PeteWMass, writes " Ive dug probably 200-300 coins back there all told and hes got several finds that beat anything Ive found back there.......hehe"
, that's weird , most fields are good for a few coins , not hundreds of them ,
what I am saying , that place was something more than just the usual farm field , not that there is anything wrong with that
