Amazing Find!

[Flukenut]

I have been detecting for 40 years, found a lot of different coins. But there was one on my bucket list I never thought I would find.I found a beach that use to be a resort in the turn of the century and found a lot of silver coins there.Every week is a new adventure with the movement of sand. Today was one of those days. Got a 27-28 signal on the 600, dug down , got a 1907 barber dime. After checking the hole got a 37-38 signal. Called my son over with his etrac and he got a 12-40 signal. After a few scoops, down about a foot came up a 1935 Peace dollar! Wow! Never thought this day would come!

Thanks everybody for all the nice comments.The beach I hunt is a salt water beach.iron infested and very difficult to hunt. The equinox 600 handles it well! Very happy with machine. Good luck to all, and happy hunting!!
