Ok, it's just a spill of two Morgans, but it doubled my silver dollar lifetime total! I was hunting for Civil War relics with my digging partner (we both swing the CTX), and thought I was digging up a belt plate at first until the large silver disc shot out of the dirt. After the shock wore off, I re-scanned the area and got an identical signal. Sure enough, Morgan number two emerged. It was a good day, to say the least. We found some Civil War relics also and, not to be outdone, my partner dug an 18k gold men's ring that has probably $500 of gold in it.

Nice, any mint marks on the reverse? There's also a doubled die reverse version of the 1900 that's worth a bit more.

Yes, they are both O. I did check them with the loupe, but sadly they are just plain 'ole Morgans. No VAM finds here.
 

Awesome!!! Congrats!!! Score!!!!
 

Nice. I found my first one two weeks ago. Still can’t believe it. I keep picking it up just to feel the weight. Congratulations

I've been at this almost 30 years and haven't found ONE silver dollar, so you doubled my total as well- BIG time Congrats!
