    Short Hunt About a Week Ago Nets Silver, First Mexican Coin of 2013

    Howdy Folks!
    Got in a short hunt recently. It hasn't been easy to do any detecting at all while trying to create my own business, and working as a fugitive recovery agent *and* a process server *and* holding down a day job. Very little time for detecting!
    Anyhow, I digress!
    It was all fine and dandy until the sun set and the temperature dropped like a stone.
    Don't mean to sound wimpy here, but since I had them blood thinners, I still ain't able to cope with cold like I was.

    Anyhow, enough crying in the beer, especially considering I don't drink beer.

    My short hunt (maybe an hour) with the MXT Pro produced:

    4 Quarters = $1.00
    3 Nickels = $0.15
    3 Dimes = $0.30
    16 Pennies = $0.16
    Coin Count= 36
    Total = $1.71

    The primary reason for this post is the silver bracelet I found, stamped 925 and looks terrific.
    Here are some photos, I didn't even bother with the tripod this time.







    Thanks for Looking!
    Blessings,

    Quarters = 123
    Nickels = 60
    Dimes = 104
    Pennies = 246
    Half Dollars =
    Dollar Coins = 3
    Total Coins = 535
    Gold Sale 2/5/13 = $25.50
    YTD = $73.21

    Its Going to be a Shpadoinkle Day!

    Gunning for Gold!

    After reading how busy you have been on finding some time to swing the MXT. Very nice bracelet and your clad count or the year is on a roll.

    Another very good hunt. I know what you mean about feeling cold. I have been cold ever since I went on blood pressure pills in 2003. Must be similiar to the blood thinning meds.

    Howdy Starman!
    I had no idea what sort of stones those were. Thanks for the information.
    All I knew for certain, the bracelet is silver. Knowing the stones are actually fire opals is helpful.
    Thanks amigo. Much obliged.

    Howdy Fred!
    I was peachy until taking them blood thinners. I have videos of my self hunting in snow, cold weather, day and night, no problem. Now I can't seem to handle anything below 40 degrees! Whazzup with that?
    Anyhow, I hope to overcome that one of these days. Either that or wait for spring.
    Naw... that ain't happening.
