GOLD COIN FOUND BY AMATEUR METAL DETECTORIST !!!
The full story : This was a life changer of a find ! First let me apologize for not knowing what I had found and for mishandling it 😬, I at this point was just experimenting with metal detecting on the channel and was using a Bounty Hunter Brand detector that sat unused in my closet for a decade . I was still at the level of learning how to detect and knew very little about older American coins, so even when I was digging it up I didn't fully understand the level of the find. It was not something on my bucket list ( because I didn't know they were out there, except old Spanish treasures) , I kept doubting that it was solid gold and even as I began to understand that it was real I had no idea how rare it was to find one, I thought that if I had just dug one it must happen pretty often, again I apologize for my ignorance , but I went home and typed in Gold Coin Found …expecting to see a hundred channels pop up that had found one, and then it sank in ….., so later in the evening ,after the video has long ended ,I sat staring at it understanding what had just happened to me , and that I had captured it on film, and my mind was fully blown.
Answers to questions : Thats my daughter and her mother who came to see what dad was hollering about. yes I still have the coin. No I'm not selling it. No this is not a faked video. The detector ; an old model Bounty Hunter ( not made anymore). Garrett ID #”S68-71( Pop Top ). Mid tone. soil is a river loam alluvial shelf deposit 20 ft deep. Coin was 4-5 inches down. Yes I have searched for more coins at the site.
The site : This area that the coin was found in is now a private campground for a small very rural housing development in the hills of California. I have lived near it for a decade and the locals explain that it was an old small townsite , there was at one time a 1800s wild west bar and there is a crossroads and fording point on the river there .after that it had up to twenty small cabins that family could rent for the weekend to fish and camp, I have since found other coins of the period and many finds that date from the roaring twenties, and there are a lot of follow up vids on this site that I have done since And posted on the channel , I hope you will check them out and remember that crazy things are out there everywhere just waiting to be discovered ! Thanks for watching !!!
