Metal Detecting an Old Dock Site - Gold Coin

Dropped in the water close to 150 years ago. Dreaming about finding one of these for a long time…

[@dienal-hakim8649]

though I had some problem with sea water It also kzbin.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

[@Po1itica11yNcorrect]

I bet you're still as excited today about that find as the day you found it. And I wouldn't blame you one bit. Took 40+ years to get it. It'll take another 40+ years for the excitement to finally stop. Congratulations!

Started this hobby in 1973? I was still in High School. I bought my first Garrett TR metal detector around 1973. Great find! Still on my bucket list.

[@John03lightning]

welcome to the gold coin club, your are right about that , you just cant explain the feeling when you realize what you have just dug and its in your hand !!!!!!!!!!

[@tennesseegem1063]

Wow, what an AWESOME find.A big congrats on the Gold coin not to mention your other finds. That is great a day to remember. Now go find that $20 Gold coin and as always, take care and HH.

[@strickdog]

That may be your first gold coin but you have more then made up for it with gold rings! Thanks for all your great videos. I started metal detecting about 2 years ago and your videos have helped me immensely.

[@AmericanDiggerInEurope]

That's a REAL bucket list find! Congrats!

[@claykemper7193]

Gold is so amazing. It can remain underwater for 2,000 years and it will still look like new.

[@alekseyivashchenko]

The beautiful gold coin. Congratulations:)

[@mikecole2619]

Awesome video Sir and congratulations! I am having a good season in the water this year and was strongly considering getting the scuba certification, this encourages me!

[@tedbaxter5234]

Just outstanding.

[@ryansmith9847]

Absolutely awesome bro! Well deserved too. Anyone that's been doing this hobby that long, deserves at least one gold coin. Thank you for your videos, I enjoy them very much.

[@johnross1395]

Treasure is Pleasure as Bob Marx would say. No greater feeling that finding gold.. Well done

[@CoinHuntingDrew]

Incredible gold piece. You must have a really good site there, that's probably never been hunted or was hunted by terrible metal detectors back when. Rarely do I ever see anyone dig pre-1930's coinage out of the water unless it was a recent dropped wheat cent or something along those lines. Good job on containing yourself MOSTLY throughout the video. I probably would have spit out my mouthpiece when I saw a seated, attempted to scream out loud, but realistically gulped in a ton of sea water and died. LOL. I think you're right with the marks on the reverse. Probably part of an old pin of some sorts. A LOT of gold pieces you see nowadays, especially on eBay too, are damaged due to people during the 1800's taking them and making all sorts of jewelry pieces out of them and giving them to their spouse, girlfriend, etc.

[@GA1dad]

Wow!! Congratulations!!!

[@metaldetectingtasmania6740]

[@TreasureTracker]

Which detector are you using? Excalibur? :)

[@jimbonito3766]

What a pisser hearing you when you found it ... Epic find so amazing the condition it comes out of the water

[@info4rob]

Great find!

[@procaliadventures]

Congratulations on that beauty of a coin, stunning! How deep was the clay area you got the gold coin and whats the average time you get out of a tank? Good luck on your next dive and happy hunting. Amazing.

[@DetectorComparisons]

About 15 - 20 feet of water depending on the tides. I use a 120 cubic foot tank and get 3-4 hours.

[@OutdoorSnD]

What a great video! You found so many old coins! Congrats on the gold coin! We have yet to find one and here in canada its probably highly unlikely so a huge congrats man! Subscribed!!

[@texasdigger3273]

U lucky dog, find of a lifetime. That is some old swimming area, fresh r salt? Thanks for sharing, enjoyed going along. I used to scuba many years ago n made some outstanding finds at an old swimming hole called "The Blue Hole" in Wimberly, Tx, that was some cold water, keep those vids coming...

Hey, at least it wasn't a seated haha...!! Oh and that coin proves 22k gold can build up minerals on it in the ocean. For everyone who thinks gold can't. Great dig, wish I was there doing the same thing !! Keep @ it and HH !!
