Easter evening, after filling up on lamb chops, I hit a ball field near the elementary school. I was looking for gold, so I was digging everything, and surprised at all the pull tabs I was getting right at the the dugout.

I was literally only getting pennies, including 1 shallow wheat.

Then I got a signal that was high And tight. 94 on the at pro. I had already dug a couple clad half dollars this week, and I know they ring in at around 92. My mind hoped that this signal would be a silver dollar. It was only a couple inches deep so I dug a wide plug so as to make sure I do not Nic my target.

I thought maybe it was a Englehard prospector. It has a similar look to thoes silver rounds. I knew it was a silver coin because it was proof like in the ground.

I took a selfie with the coin I was so stoked on digging my first of many silver dollars :)

That's got to be the silver variety. A clad one would have toned at least a little in the ground and yours looks almost reflective. Awesome dig and congrats!
 

Dang, this is awesome! Great find. Heading your way for a weekend hike on Orcas tomorrow. Luck in the hunt and I look forward to seeing more of your posts soon!
