Another First!

[dgruff]

I thought I posted this here, but it was in the beach section. Anyway, another awesome first for me! This had me way more excited that either of the gold rings I've found so far. And I've found a few silver "things", but this was my first silver coin. She was 2" deep a rang in a SOLID 90! It's a 1944, the same year this lake was built.

The penny pic isn't very good...sorry.

Excellent find. Another coin on my wish list. You got to dig lots more trash to find treasure.

 

[dgruff]

Oh believe me, there's tons of trash, just not today. Today my back was killing me, and in all honesty, I shouldn't have gone. But it was my day off and I couldn't help it, lol. I also look for arrowheads and just generally scan the ground constantly with my eyes. Sometimes, I set the Pro down and just hunt rocks and heads. I also found what I believe is a tail section of an airplane in the water. I found a door/hatch in the same location back in the spring. They filmed an episode of Walker Texas Ranger here at this spot back in the 80's. And if I'm not mistaken, they crashed a plane. I've yet to find out for sure yet.

Great first silver coin find. Hope it's the first of many more to follow.

I would not know it better
nice!!

 

[William-NM]

Now, that is one beautiful coin! It looks like she was dropped almost fresh from the mint.

 

[dgruff]

Thanks guys! This is BY FAR the coolest thing I have found yet. I bet I looked at it and held it a million times yesterday, lol. Probably more than it's been held in it's life?
By the way, anyone seen JimTn lately?

 

[Wandering Yoda]

Awesome, and beautiful "Walker" dgruff!!! and at only 2 inches!!! It would be so cool to find the whole plane. I'd have to figure out a way to get Chuck Norris to sign a chunk of it. And then frame it up nice

 

[Leslie(nova scotia)]

That is indeed a nice find and the shape.....outstanding.

 

[dgruff]

Thank you, sir!
