Got out this weekend for two hunts at three schools . Yesterday was a bust except for the clad , $9.99 in two hours . This morning was different ! It was my son Carson's first hunt since he hurt his knee in football back in July . He was hoping for a big gold ring but didn't find one http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/BangHead.gif . He did find a cool sterling silver neck less with a dream catcher on it http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . His other finds were a 1953 S wheat , 1958 nickel and two kids rings , #9 and #10 for the year http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . My day was a good one also . I found a 1954 D silver Rosie and a tiny sterling ring . Also found two other junk rings making my total for the #122 http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/icon_thumright.gif . My favorite find of the day was a old Buggy name plate ! It says " Built by Deal Buggy Co. " and has CAT No. 27 on it . Looks to be made in Jonesville , Michigan . Anyone know anything about this ? Total clad for today's 4 hour hunt was $19.36 for myself and $5.01 for Carson . http://tnet.forumfoundry.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif
