Al I went out for a couple hours after work tonight. We stopped and knocked on the door of an old Victorian home only to get a polite No. Good thing, because we went next door and got a yes. We were told the house was built in the 1890s. Alec hunted for a while and dug two nice wheaties. He asked if I wanted to use the e-trac for a while. Duh, what do you think. After about a buck in clad, I got a nice signal and dug a very nice .925 Sterling ring with a rose on it. Some more clad and then a bouncy 12-46, 12-47. First thing out of the hole was a rusty nail and then a little more digging and I saw that beautiful silver rim. An 1895 Barber Half. I got to tell you, it was a great feeling. By the way, I no longer have the ring. My Wife Does.!!
