Ed, terrific post and a well deserved terrific find, congratulations!
Your method of detecting in older areas wouldn't interest most folks. They want to run and gun, so to speak. I had a friend who didn't like trying for older coins because as he said you don't come home with much in your pouch. That partner might be the reason I am a coin shooter at heart and do it most days to relax. Your relaxation is out and about in nature areas - woods, forest, old wagons trails and who knows - out just might land a gold coin sooner than most folks.
Congratulations on #60 - best of luck out there.
