I'm still shaking http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/hello2.gif!!!! Went out this morning with Ryan 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 :grin: . 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 !!!! http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/headbang.gifhttp://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/headbang.gifhttp://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/headbang.gifhttp://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/hello2.gifhttp://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/hello2.gifhttp://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/hello2.gif. 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 http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . Now I can hag up the MXT , NOT http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/laughing7.gif . What a great hunt that I will never forget http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif .
