First silver coin was a biggie

[bentdiggin]

Wish this post was for me but I am not this lucky. My friend Bill was at an old park trying out his AT pro for first time. He got a reading of 95 and the sound said dig. What he pulled from the ground was a true beauty. 1921 Morgan Dollar. Needless to say he is now deeply in love with the hobby.

Another one bites the dust! Addictive...isn't it!?

Awesome find!

Beautiful first silver coin and what a beautiful coin. A Morgan dollar is on my wish list. You are at the point of no return and hooked for sure

 

[el remolino]

Wow...that is pretty darn impressive. I would enjoy a day like that.

 

[BigWaveDave]

that's outstanding!!

 

[Loco-Digger]

Glad to hear he is addicted like many of us. Bet he is still stoked about pulling that Morgan. Sweet coin.

Big Congrats to your friend!!

Don't know if finding a Morgan is all that good for a first silver coin, finding Rosie's and Mercs just won't cut it now. Lol

Awesome find.....

He he he, our secret weapon! Works well doesn't it!

Great detail on that Morgan!

 

[UnderMiner]

Epic first find! Hooked for life after that no doubt! -Yar!

 

[whammy]

What an awesome find. I hope he realizes that this doesn't happen every time he goes out, but he sure can try. That is still on my wish list. Congratulations to the new detectorist.

That poor poor man is forever hooked bad. That said...

Damn!

Please extend a congrats to your friend!

"Beginner's Luck", right?
No?
then, he's a detectorist.

Great FIND, and first-time with the new machine, too...!
Wow!

Man, he is sure going to be bumming when the next 50 big silvers he digs are the lids to those barrel juices!

Great Morgan!

 

[treblehunter]

Great find, very beautiful condition on that sweet Dollar!

 

[bentdiggin]

He is hooked. Loves the At pro. Just like most of us he may need professional help. Addiction is hard to kick.

What a beauty! Congrats to your friend!

My first silver also was silver dollar - 1923 Peace Dollar eyeball find - so ya never know what's gonna happen when you get out there! Andi

If the first coin I found when I first started hunting was a Morgan silver dollar I would never put down the detector til the batteries quit . Those Morgans are hard to come by. excellent find there for him.
