    Recent finds!

    Went hunting with Earl and Pokie73 this past weekend. I got a 1943 Washington quarter, a 1959 Rosie dime, a .925 silver ring, a goldtone Avon ring, a Sterling silver religious pendant, 9 Wheaties, an 1898 Indian and 187 clad coins totaling $16.96. Happy hunting to all!

    Nice digs! Those Avon rings always make me nuts... I've dug several that looked great at first but proved not to be. That's a nice pile of clad and congrats on the silver!

    Yes Dennis cleaned the Memorial pennies off the top so I could get a good strong signal on the silver dime below. Thats a real friend! :hysterical: :hysterical: :hysterical:

    Fred, I like the two rings, espesicially the ladies silver one with stones. You and Dennis seem to find silver whenever you go out. Congrats on some nice finds. Since I also hunt with Dennis, hopefully I will be able to meet you. Dennis is to come Thursday but we may get rained out. Dennis and I detected back in the 1970's together. BigJohn
