    Road Trip to Massachusetts*no coppers* but a fun trip!

    My friend Carol Rio invited me & todd up to her neck of the woods.got a chance to swing my new MXT all pro.my 1st relic was the oval piece.still gotta work with it as it's a bit different than my XLT.
    carol is a sweet lady and Todd is just Todd,can't ask for a better hunting partner. really enjoyed getting away! a victorian to 1920's era silver ring,a great seal cuff button, a musket ball and 4 pouches of trash

    Nice finds Dave. I know it won't take you long to get used to your new machine.

    Were you guys in East Or West Bridgewater, as the mug shows? I grew up in the town over - Easton, Ma.

    The ring cleaned nice. Was the stone glass?

    That is a sweet ring I concur with the Art Nouveau look of it.
