Didn't know there was a 'gold coin club'. I've found many mostly between the 1960's and early 80's. Last gold I found was in northern Maine August 1984. I don't hunt like I used to any more but I don't think the places I found stuff would be of use now. I never talk about where I go or the research techniques to locate potential hunt sites. I have passed on general advice as to locations of interest to others after I've satisfied myself of a particular site. I don't mind fellow MDer's checking a site after I'm done with it, if I know them. I've hunted in 26 states and 3 countries out side the US. I have prospected and mined in 2 states. If I were in my 20's instead of 70's I'd work a gold claim in either Nevada or Alaska. Matter of fact I'd do both. Gold season in Alaska is short, work the Nevada claim rest of the time.
Awesome thanks will check it out when I get time. Working a lot of hours right now for a big move and a big metal detector purchase lol.
You have found more then 1 gold coin?

I have found many gold coins.... and I'll share the location even. The internet. I often search just to dream and drool. Grats to those who have been fortunate enough to find these dream finds.

I found one in a ring 5 Yuan China Panda. Some folks like to categorize gold coin finds as modern or period....jewelry and not. While I would love to find an old gold coin dropped in 1885 I have to say finding the 1/20 ounce coin in a ring was pretty exciting.

I found one and it's an oldie!
I've found one gold coin in over 30 years of detecting and it was last February while detecting in England. I was there for 7 days and I dug it on my last day. It's a very rare 70 B.C. celtic gold quarter stater. The only one of this type that they have found or seen in the club I belong to over there.
I really hope to find a U.S. gold coin some day!!

I have only found 1 gold coin but not while detecting. I was replacing part of a damaged wooden floor in a bar in Custer, SD and found a 20 dollar gold coin under that floor back in 1986.

I have been metal detecting for five years. I have been hunting a friends property in Henrico, VA. Two weeks ago I took out my AT Pro I got for Christmas and found an 1885 S $5 GOLD coin. Normally I find a lot of clad, a little silver, and civil war relics. It really took me by surprise!

One will be hard to find for me because my area was weaned off Gold coins early and most circulated out West.
I'm in as good a place as I can hope for though, if anybody carried Gold coins back in the day it was probably here.

I have found one gold coin and it was in Los Angeles in an old barrio area park. Total shock when I found it. I have been told that the hole in it was more than likely to hide it from thieves as folks crossed the border back in the day.
It is a 20 Peso from Mexico and is about the size of a $10 gold eagle.
