Gold Coin Find Most Of Us Never See Indian Princess

[Gerry in Idaho]

Most of us have seen gold coins and a lucky few have even unearthed one.  But have you seen a US gold coin that was found with a detector, like this one?

Only 34,500 minted.  Yes it is a really great condition 1856-S Indian Princess $3 US Gold Piece.

Jared T. in WY can now proudly join the Gold Coin Club.  And he is certainly happy with his choice of the Equinox 800 fitted with the small 6" coil for trashy sites.

That is a find! Thanks for sharing as it helps keep us going when it's hot, dusty and the digging is hard.

They'd have to revive me at the nearest ICU if I was ever so fortunate as to make a discovery as fine as that! Congrats go out to Jared of Wyoming via Jerry from Idaho.
