Hello everyone today i decided to take the Dfx out and do some park hunting at a local park. At first i hit the grass area and found a few dimes and nickels the i decided to hit one of the tot lots in the park wich is fairly large in size. There i found some more nickels and some misc charms but nothing fancy. Then as i was leaving i decided to hit a smaller tot lot on the other side of the park and was swinging the old dfx when i looked down near a slide and boom there laying right in front of the slide at the botom half exposed an 1888 Morgan silver dollar in nice condition. When i saw it i couldnt believe it. Ive never found a coin that nice and to top it off i didnt even find it with my detector it was just laying there half exposed in the sand. Lol the irony of things. Guess you never know what your gona find and when.

It is amazing what kid's will bring to school to show their friends. I have found two Morgans at or near tot lots, one was counterfeit and the other was butchered by a lawn mower.

Conratulations on your real and unharmed find! :thumbsup:
