    Manticore is already paying for itself with GOLD!

    I am on a bit of a hot streak the last two days. I went to a park yesterday morning for a quick hunt and since no one was in the tot lot I thought I would swing through it. I have never found much in tot lots but the first signal was a bling jewelry so I thought I would stay in the lot for a bit longer. A few targets later and a 14k cross shows up! and then a few targets after that I found an 18k plated ear ring. This was by far my best tot lot experience. I took the pic without cleaning the cross so it is still dirty.

    Then today I went back to the same park and found a 14k white gold men's wedding band!

    That's some lot! Yeah, I've never found much at tot lots, but you seemed to have cracked the code. Do you sell some of your gold? The only things I ever sold were a few gold rings. Great job, Jared!

    No not yet but with the current gold prices I should. I am guessing those two items are probably worth $200 ish so I might get $150 for them?
