My first find with the Explorer 2 I just got. Any ID?

It's been a long time since I had an Explorer XS. I only had it for a short time and had to sell to pay taxes. Now after a few years I have another Explorer. This one has the 10" coil and I forgot how heavy they are. It'll take a couple weeks to get used to using it for a few hours.

I took it over to an old one room school house that has been hunted a few times. I went under an apple tree where a few coins came out and got a sweet high tone with the X in the upper corner. This was right beside of where somebody dug something. I used the 1 old cut and made a new plug and out comes this coin at about 10". I was down a couple inches past my shovel. At first I though it was a barber dime and kept looking at and it is foreign. It looks silver but I can't read the date on it or where it's from. Maybe somebody here knows what it is or I'll take it to a coin dealer.

At first when the Explorer got here I was thinking maybe I should trade if for something lighter but now I'm hyped on how deep it hits coins.

Rick, if you put a pro coil on your explorer 2 it will help alot with the weight problem, congrats on the nice coin find
