My international favorite find for August 2018 is the 1852 California Gold Coin Souvenir, found by Greg D. from Ontario, Canada with his AT Max.
Greg's story: My best day out with the Max yet!!! Hitting my 1800's park where I've previously found old silvers, buff's, indian head pennies, large cents. This day started slow with a little clad and then a couple 1800's relics. Ive been digging everything to really try and clean this park out. I had a really iffy 59 reading and a faint scratchy signal in my headphones. Little did i know I'de be about to dig my best find to date. Out from the hole popped a tiny gold coin stamped 1852 with an indian head and California gold stamped on the back. I jumped for joy! I instantly popped online to look it up. Turns out jewellers created these gold coins as souvenirs in the 1800s. I am still on cloud 9!!!!
Greg D. WINS a Pro-Pointer AT Z-Lynk™ and Garrett® MS-3 Wireless Kit!

My second international favorite find for August 2018 is the Buenos Aires Nugget, found by Damian G. from Argentina with his Ace 400i.
Damian's story: Hi, I live in Benavidez Buenos Aires, Argentina. I take advantage of the time I can going out as a family, and of course I do not miss a single exit if I take my detector. What happened is I went to a mountain place with my Garrett Ace 400i. I was encouraged since this is not mining equipment, and it was great to detect me a gold nugget! I could not believe it! You imagine my happiness.
