Holy Guacamole

[RaZR]

I have to start by saying how this started. One day I was heading to the Goodwill store and I thought that I was being followed. Turns out I was! This guy saw the Minelab sticker on my bumper and he was a detectorist also. We talked for awhile and he mentioned hunting at the local fairgrounds where I have hunted many times. He said something about hunting in the area inside the horse track and I thought to myself, that's one of the few places I haven't hit hardly at all. So at the beginning of the year that's where I started looking. So far I've got three silver dimes and 10 wheats out of there. And my oldest coin the King George II
half penny.
Well today I got .77 in clad and then I dug what at first looked like another big smashed aluminum bottle cap.
But turned out to be this.


The second coin I figured I would never find is now off the list. 1882 Morgan. Man I'm glad that guy stopped to talk!:grin:

Congrats on such an awesome bucket lister! You will never forget that dig! Who knows what else is there?

Great looking bottle cap-could use a few of those myself!

That is a stunner!! :shocked04:mg:
I found one a few years back but it was in poor condition. Congratulations on a rare bucketlister!!

Awesome bucket lister! You just never know when the opportunity to dig something great will present itself.

Nice find! I have a lot of morgans ( never dug one) but they are such beautiful coins.
