Ahhh , maybe later today lol , thanks for the kind words , i was speechless
 
WOW Dave, big congrats! :clapping: |:confused:) You guys hit some fantastic spots and pull some nice stuff, so it was only a matter of time before you pulled out one of those monster silvers! Great hunt!!
 
I am so pumped for you. Great find. Those are few and far between. I would have had a heart attack!! :stretcher: :stretcher:

CONGRATS!!! You got my vote for find of the month!! Happy Hunting!! :twirlingeyes: :twirlingeyes:
 
Now that is a BIG silver lol What a beauty :smitten: That scratch looks dull and may have been there before you dug it, so I'm not sure you dinged it :thinkingabout: That was an amazing day's hunt Dave !! |:confused:) |:confused:) |:confused:)
 
Another congrats buddy! :clapping:
She is a beauty. I really don't think you hit it with your digger.
I noticed that scratch when I was admiring the coin. A fresh scratch on an old
silver coin will be nice and bright. The scratch here is the same tone as the rest of the coin.
My guess is the scratch is almost as old as the coin. :yes:
Super find Dave! <:
 
Beautiful coin, Dave. :smitten: It won Find of The Month for a reason. thumbsup01 That's enough silver to hold you for a month. lol
