People come up to me and ask me what I've found over the years. My usual response is: "Well, I haven't found a gold coin or a silver dollar." Well, as of yesterday, I can cut that statement in half. I found an 1880 silver dollar.
After 20 years of detecting, I finally found one. My knees buckled and my legs shook and I would imagine my heart rate was off the charts.

Congratulation, you must have been in ‘Relic Ray mode’, on your machine.
 
I found one last year, you described pretty much the same reactions I had. There has to be a dance we could all relate to that we all probably have done but dont remember, something like the “Big Ass Silver Shuffle.”
Gotta love the big boys, bet you will never forget the sound of that saying “here I am!!!!”
 
Gotta ask...what were you swinging?? How deep was it?? Great signal or iffy/bouncy??
 
Congratulations on the Silver Dollar. Getting one that you've been chasing for a long time is a real thrill. With 50% of your statement now void, I hope your gold coin got twice as likely!
