Some of you TNETers might remember my post on Dec. 8th 2009, of my find of a lifetime, being an 1871 CC $5 gold coin. If you remember I was searching for the barrel to a pepperbox frame that I had found on a prior hunt.
Well I did the same thing on July 5th (last week) searching for more pieces to a Sharps rifle that I have found multiple parts for. I was fortunate enough to have found another $5 gold coin, an 1870 S! This makes my 6th gold coin being found, and my 3rd in 2 yrs. and 7 months. I took a hiatus from the forums last year and didn't post an 1847 O $2.5!
Thanks for looking!

I attached a few field pics., the rest of the finds from the outing on the 5th, parts to the Sharps rifle, and the $2 1/2 gold coin from last year!
