Made more than my gas which is no easy feat these days. Had a number of spills. 9 quarters and a dime, 4 quarters, 3 quarters and .69 cents. The highlight a 3.6 gram sterling silver ring. GF came home and stole the ring. This bear paw design seems to be Navajo.
This past weekend in a seeded metal detecting event. Over $400.00 in total of silver melt value and 2 silver coins I won.. Won these 2 Morgans
I believe that indicates the manufacturer. Don't know enough about that sort of stuff to tell you who the manufacturer is and when it's from though. Might be for the collar of a uniform or a cap like these.
Ahhh...it's the thrill of the hunt...mostly? Still fun to see what you folks are pulling from the ground.
I was a little disappointed, because this was always a great spot, and I would go every 3-4 months. Well I think I have pulled at least 12 dollar coins there (or more, and some halves and some silvers) and I hadn't been there in 2 years. So the amount of money was what I expected, but I was hoping to get a dollar coin, or something. After I pulled the half at the very first site, I was hoping for more. At one of the sites, a homeless woman climbed over a wall. There was a house that was almost completed construction, and I assume she was squatting there. There was a port o potty where I was, so I was thinking she knew that and didn't want to do her business in the wild. I can understand not finding a silver ring. But not to find any junkers or miscellaneous stuff (1 token) was unusual.
Well this was a kooky thing. I get out there and it starts going OK. But then I am realizing that I did this area recently. Too late to switch or go back I soldiered on. I hit a surface spill, so that was unusual. Only used 1 gallon of gas, so it turned out OK.
