Well I got out for a couple of hours after the temp's got up around 30° this morning. I went to the local grade school and didn't get much to show. The wood chips were froze solid without any good hits. I thought I might have a gold ring, but after cleaning it had rust on it. So I finished the day with 2 dimes, 2 nickles and 7 pennies with the oldest being a 1960. One junk wire ring and part of pin.

That's a much better hunt than mine was lol I packed it up for the season :crying02: Glad you had a chance to get out and detect for a while. They aren't all great hunts, but it's always a pleasure to at least go out in the fresh air!

You got my last hunt of the year beat thumbsup01 I got a nickel and a zinc. Couldn't get out detecting today cause of the rain but it sure was warm and all the snow is gone and tomorrow the temps are dropping back down again.

I didn't see anything on it Dale to indecate it was a boy scout item. I think it is some kind of saint pin. JMG

I'm a thinking there will be to much snow and ice to go back to work in the woods Monday..

You win some and you loose some. :yes:

But... at least you got out with the potential to find the goodies. I probably won't get to swing the detector until the end of February if I'm lucky.

You'll get 'em next time. thumbsup01
