Gold Turns up on Century Day

Century Hunt Turns up Gold!

Howdy Folks!
Between feeling somewhat poorly since I had surgery, blood thinners reducing my ability to withstand chilly weather and spending more time on the pistol range working with my wife with an eye toward getting our CCW permits, I haven't hunted with anything similar to my usual regularity. That's also been a problem because I'm back at work, at least 3 days a week, and after working a full shift, the knee is real tender.

That being said, I did get out yesterday to enjoy a day of detecting. I found several jewelry items that include a nice bangle bracelet, the ubiquitous RTD token, some keys and a 10k gold bracelet. I also harfvested 127 coins along the way.

I found this little pin with unusual symbology on it. It has an inverted triangle with a shield in the center with a sword passing over it.

Also found a nice looking cross with ropes crossing the center.

Of course, my best find of the day was the gold bracelet. Acid tested verified at 10k.

My take on the day was:
21 Quarters = $5.25
15 Nickels = $0.75
26 Dimes = $2.60
65 Pennies = $0.65
Total = $9.25
Coin Count = 127 Coins.

Thanks for Looking,

Great hunt! :clapping: As a fellow Coloradoan, I can appreciate those finds! Those coins look awfully clean- are they coming out of tot lots, or out of the soil? All of the clad coins I find in the grass come out reddish-orange in color, and the digging is TOUGH! :hairpulling:

I really like the assortment of finds. Congrats on the gold! happydance02
