Got out this weekend for two hunts for about 5 hours . Yesterday was the better of the hunts http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . Hunted an older area of San Jose with eagleforce ( Ryan ) and did pretty good http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . I found three rings , one being 925 silver with a blue stone . This brings my ring total for the year to #129 http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . I also found a sterling ear ring http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/icon_thumright.gif . The best finds were a 1939 plain mercury dime at 5 inches http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/hello2.gif . It was a clean +81 vdi in a dirt area . Then about 10 minutes later in the same dirt area I found a 1944 wheat cent at 4 inches .The other wheat in the picture I got in change today , a 1945D. Ryan also found two wheats in the same area http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . After about two hours we were ready to leave . I thought I would dig one more target and I'm glad I did http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif . It was a +45 at 6-7 inches . As I dug out the dirt out popped a coin . It turned out to be an old Chinese cash coin , my 2nd this year . It dates from 1796 - 1820 , Emperor Jen Tsung . Not as special as the Reale I found last weekend but I'll take it http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/images/smilies/headbang.gif! Total clad for both hunts is $15.96 .

Work has been very busy this year so I haven't been able to go out as much lately . I'm hoping for 150 . My best year ever was 182 I think .

You are amazing Glen. I took your advice and hit a couple of schools last week. I only found one costume jewelry ring but did find a massive amount of clad. Almost a century day in 2 1/2 hours.
