Hello everyone. Oct 11 2019 I had my best find since I started metal detecting. There was a baseball field that I never noticed on the map that was only 20 minutes away . I dug a few wheat cents a skeleton key then out in right field it happened. 22k gold 1911 20 Swiss Francs coin. I freaked even ran the bases at the field because it was a home run . I decided to make it my banner for my channel Fun With Dirt. Thanks for looking . Happy Hunting. I’ll post the video in the video section if anyone is interested .

Very nice coin, apparently was issued for bullion like the current US mint gold coins. Maybe lost from a piece of jewelry? Congrats.
 
A gold coin has to be #1 on just about everyone's dream find list.

HUGE congrats!

So, what does a 22k coin ring up like? I need to know.
 
Thanks it’s From Switzerland the lady on the coin is actually the Swiss Miss in front of The Alps. It’s the size of a nickel.
 
Hey can you snap a picture of it beside a dime so we can see the size perspective? WTG on the gold coin!
