GOLD COIN!!!

[LukeCoughlan]

Mid 1800's home site. Working through the under growth 20 feet from the footprint of the house. Very clear 67 VDI on my At gold. Opened the hole up and the signal disappeared for a few seconds. Did the sweep around the hole and caught the signal again. Square shovel in the hole and bam. Dont give up..it can happen

Wow! That baby looks like the mint made it yesterday! I'd bet it's AU! Great job! I think a lot of gold gets skipped by diggers as they don't like those mid tones. BANNER!

Wow.....the "grail" for any detectorist. That coin was a significant financial loss a hundred+ years ago.
You have achieved the dream all the rest of us still search for. Congrats brother, she is truly a rare
beauty.

Thank you all! This was easily the 100th target that day. I'm guilty of getting frustrated but I've been working on maintaining a positive attitude when out at these sites and it will pay off. Happy hunting this year to all!

East Coast Canada. New Brunswick. Any homestead pre 1880 usually has US coinage here.
