    Triple Georges

    Went to a schoolyard this morning and a section that usually is gated and locked was open..so I detected in the area.
    Got some surface clad..some that had been in the ground a while, a silver ring 3 inches deep, and a triple play of silver Georges !!!
    The weather was great !!!!
