Now that you are in the club sit in this leather chair and have a brandy to sip.
I am still out of the silver dollar club.
However I have access to the silver half club.

Awesome find! They are few and far in between to find.
I’m hoping to join the club this year. I’ve had some great finds out of the woods as well.

A peace dollar was my first dollar coin! Congrats and welcome to the club 
I love the character of your coin, it obviously has a story to tell.

Aw shucks, thanks everyone! Really appreciate all the kind words!
Congrats! And sounds good! I am on the South Shore. You have to be loving this balmy winter so far...
Let's see...so far no major perks for being in the club, but if that changes then I'll let you know!
Yes, very rare in Jan! You know, every cellar hole I've found has a concentration of beer cans. Even if the rest of the site has minimal trash. It baffles me how kids always seem to be drawn to gather there. Maybe whatever urged early settlers to set up a homestead on those sites (on a ridge, close to a water source, etc) also draws kids and campers to hang out there? This peace dollar was very close to a cellar hole loaded with beer cans (some really old mid-century ones), which is why I think it may have been on the necklace of some scout, teen, or camper hanging out there back in the day.
I know this is sacrilege, but the first thing I did is buy a scratch ticket and used it on that...not a winner.
Cool finds! And two in one day is crazy!
Madam
But thanks just the same!
Awesome find! I was fortunate enough to get my first peace dollar also in the woods of MA in 2018. Good luck this season! You should join me, and a couple other forum members for a hunt this year

Congradulations in joining a club that so many including myself remain on the outside looking in .
I know you guys are sworn to secrecy or something but it's killing me to know there is something going on behind close doors that doesn't include me.
Please report back to us and let us know what's up.
This could be our big break
Congradulations!
She is beutiful .
and holed
Another bucket lister type of coin that eludes me.

Very very nice find, DLAX!
I have still not found a SILVER dollar in 30+ years of dirt fishing
I was out for a couple hours yesterday in the town woods in Massachusetts also, where I spotted a chimney and foundation while walking our dog last week. Had to check it out while we had a bit of mild temps. Under the oak leaves, the ground was not frozen and I actually turned up some earthworms and a spider. This spot must have been a favorite drinking hideaway for local youth, as I found mostly pulltabs, wine bottle caps, some broken glass and a heavy iron window sash weight.
The only coins were a 1950 Wheatie and a Lincoln Memorial. It was good to get out though, for a rare early January hunt.
