    RINGS #94 , 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 , 99 ......... Coolest silver ring ever , many photos

    #100 will have to wait till the next hunt . Got out this weekend twice . Last night I hunted a local honey hole school . It gave up a cool little sterling skeleton key pendent . Also found ring #94 , just a wire type junk ring with a tiny red stone . Total clad for that hunt was $7.80 .
    Then this morning the silver gates opened up . I went back to the school I hunted last weekend . I thought at that time it had never been hunted , I believe I was right . Only a few minutes in and I had ring #95 , a silver plated one with three clear stones . Then I found a kids Lord of the Rings ring , #96 . After that it was all silver . It had a sweet +86 at three inches , BIG silver ring with a giant blue stone and 6 tiny diamond chips #97 . It is one of the coolest silver rings I have found . Then maybe 10 minutes later I had a +20 at 4 inches , BIG silver chain ! I was jumping up and down . Then it was a boat load of clad for awhile . Finally another good target , +78 at 3 inches , silver ring with amethyst , #98 . I also found some religious pendents and tokens . I felt tired so I got in the truck to go . As I drove down the street I thought why not go check out another school and park up the street . I got out turned on my MXT PRO and got a target at 7 inches , 1957D wheat cent . I thought why not just stay and see what happens , I'm glad I did ! The third target was a +77 at two inches , I'm thinking a dime . It turned out to be a big tungsten carbide wedding band with sterling silver inlay down the middle , #99 for the year ! Now I was done . I was hoping for #100 but my knees just could do it . Total clad for three hours was $14.82 .

    Funny, but I've been in a few of those shakers myself.

    As a kid, lived in Mill Valley, San Rafael, and Fairfax in the late 70's and early 80's.

    The 1989 Loma Prieta quake was a good one , 6.9 ! I remember tending bar that night at work when it happened and seeing the window blow out at the store next to us ! Been a while since I have felt a good sized one here in San Jose .
