The wife and I spent a few hours on Sunday afternoon hunting in our default location, the nearby woods.
Since I found the gold bracelet recently, Julia scanned it with her detector and realized that her discrimination was set too high to pick it up.
It has been adjusted lol
As a result, she is finding more nickles. She dug a war nickle on Saturday when she was hunting by herself and found a buffalo, an old Jefferson and another war nickle on Sunday. She also scored 6 wheaties and her 4th Indian head, a nice 1900. Her Cutlass must like those Indian heads because I have yet to dig one.
Also on Saturday, she found 4 1/10 penny Arizona tax tokens. They are about 1/2 the size of a penny and we found that during the depression, people were so poor that the state government would figuire taxes down to the tenth of a penny, to avoid rounding.
I found 4 wheaties, A Buffalo, and an interesting engagement-style sterling ring. I am wondering what kind of stone is in it. I know that real diamonds are rarely put in silver rings but most other fake diamonds would be scratched up or chipped after being in the ground for 50+ years-that is the usual age for most things we find in this location. I can't find a scratch on this stone. Makes me wonder if it isn't at least a semi-precious stone like amethyst.
