Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Got an invitation to hunt an old farm in Katonah, New York, and drove up excited and early. After nearly two-hours of hunting near the old stone fences I had found nothing but junk targets, and I was ready to call it quits. I started back toward the farm house and the car, swinging half-heartedly, and feeling a bit defeated. About halfway back, I got a high tone that stopped me in my tracks. 39-40, solid as could be. Surprise! 1883 Philadelphia Morgan!!!!! Talk about your Happy Dance, I went from worn out to full of energy just like that! I feel karma is paying me back for some things I've done for others this month. Got a silver ring with Plazz58, and now a silver dollar. The metal detecting gods are smiling on me!:hello2:

That's a beauty
 

That is awesome Terry! Success is just one hole away from defeat! Congrats on a beautiful coin!
 

WOW Terry that's some find.... wish I was there..can't wait to go dirt hunting again
 

Man. That's a beauty. I've seen so many posts on here about finding something cool when they are on the way back to their vehicle. When I go fishing we always seem to try one last spot before going home and a lot of times we catch the biggest fish on the last or next to the last cast of the day.
 

Sometimes it comes right after you call it a day.

Congrats on the big silver:occasion14:

And yes, I've also made some real nice finds at the end of the hunt on the way back to my truck.
And as already mentioned - I've also read the same thing in a lot of other people posts.
