Let's take a trip to South Carolina with Michael on his treasure hunt to find coins, relics and buried treasures! Today Michael finds his first Morgan Silver Dollar about 4-5 inches deep in the South Carolina sandy soil.
He finds an 1889 Morgan Silver Dollar!
It's crazy how some Morgan Dollars come out of the ground looking almost new while others look like they have been in the ground since 1889! This particular coin looks like it has been in the ground for all that time, but it's still an amazing find!
