Howdy Folks!
It has been awhile since I did much hunting. Between the loss of our cat Pyewackett, training for concealed carry permits for our handguns, my wife having two surgical sessions to remove catarachs from her eyes, and a bunch of other stuff, I just ain't been swinging lately.
However, I did get out today for the first time in awhile and managed to take a 14k gold earring and a 10k gold ring along with a smattering of other items. I only visited 3 locations, but got gold at 2 of the three today. We've also had more rain here than we'd normally see in 7 summers, and this one is only half over! Now we have mosquitos like I've never seen in such abundance since I came to Colorado many years ago.

One of the photos shows a close up of the 14k stamped into the earring, but it is tough to make out. Doesn't matter, it is gold and I found it. So I'm a happy camper.
The two foreign coins are a Czech Republic 20 Korun coin and a Mexican $5 Peso. We don't see much Czech coinage around Colorado, and I am mystified how it came to be where I found it!
Anyhow, my take was:
6 Quarters = $1.50
6 Nickels = $0.30
18 Dimes = $1.80
32 Pennies = $0.32
Total = $3.42
Coin Count = 62 coins.
Along with the gold items, I also found some other jewelry items as you can see in the photos.
Thanks in advance for looking,
Blessings,
