I'm still shaking :hello2:!!!! Went out this morning with Ryan , EAGLEFORCE , and his buddy Tino and hunting a school that gave up big gold years ago . This school also gives up a silver once in a while too . As for the silver finds today I found a 1943 S Washington and a 1944 Canadian silver dime . They were both about 7-8 inches deep . Also found a 1946S wheat at 9 inches ! Now for the BIG one ! I was out in the middle of the soccer field when I got a +72 at 5 inches . I was thinking a penny or a game token but it was not ! I pulled back the plug and saw GOLD ! I took a picture and yelled over to the guys that I had gold and it had to be high karat ! I flick over the item and there it was my first ever GOLD COIN !!!! :headbang::headbang::headbang::hello2::hello2::hello2:. It is a 10th oz gold Panda coin in a 14k gold bezel ! I can't believe it ! I have thought about this day happening forever :thumbsup: . Now I can hag up the MXT , NOT :laughing7: . What a great hunt that I will never forget :thumbsup: .

Awesome dig Glen and very well deserved. :occasion14: Happy 2016!!!!!
 

I'll be throw'n my 2 cents in Sat. When I go to my daughter's and can use my I-pad...it "has" a banner button! I have a lot of voting to catch up on!
 

Congratz! It looks like you had a pretty awesome day even without the gold. An Ike, a Sacagawea, a Kennedy, multiple silver including Canadian silver, and some other Canadian coins. The gold just pushed it WAY over the top!

The other finds were great ! The Ike dollar is the first in two years and the silver Washington is the first silver coin of 2016 !

That would be great ! It's been a few years since I found the 14k gold ring with 35 diamonds that made the banner ! Thank you !

Very nice find -
Ive found 5 gold coins in jewelry - none made banner because it was considered as jewelry - not a coin find
gold coins in jewelry are more common than ones that are not -
I look at it as a gold pendant - and still a great find
 

Here's one on my better ones - was not considered by anyone as a gold coin find - don't think anyone voted for banner
its jewelry - not a coin find

have found 2 foreign gold coins in rings and 2 American gold - 1 pendant
 

Awesome!!! I'd be stoked! Nice finds and great gold coin, Congrats and HH
