    Late season hunts shorter but still silver productive

    Finds from a few of my latest 1 hour hunts while the ground is still thawed. A Mercury and Rosie. Wisconsin Digger were found in an old park that was pounded 40 years ago and is still hunted today as evidenced by the poor plug fills. It amazes me how coins go undetected. These two were found about 5 feet apart in a very open and detected area. I have found 3 other silver here but they were either on the edges of the park or very tough signals. Also found a few other silver and Wheaties at some other places. I have a ring I posted to get an ID on. Not valuable but may have some novelty value. . Thanks Wisconsin Digger

    I meant to add a comment on the ring. The picture of the top of the ring looks like something was threaded in there but was lost. I was hoping it was some old decoder ring or something from the Boy Scouts.
