    Silver and gold

    Today was nice day, not hot not cold just perfect day for detecting. Meet with Rob at my favorite school park early in the morning and we detected for couple hours there. Found silver chain with silver heart pendant on, few wheats and some clad. Then we moved to park I detected long time ago and detected there until the end of hunt. Found some clad in half hours of hunting and then got nice nickel signal 2 inches down. Nickel turned to be nice 14KT mans gold band . Got some more clad and 10 minutes after I found gold ring got nice deep signal bouncing from penny to dime. 7 inches down smiling at me was 1941 Merc . Rest of the finds ( 1927 merc, 1945p war nickel,2 silver rings, silver earing and 585 or 14KT lol gold earring) with rest of junk jewelry found last weekend. We need some rain here please . Thanks for looking and HH. Mike
