[size=large]Excal 800 Loot...[/size]

Had to mix it up today...
Started off in a wet suit ..started to rain...
Sun came out a blazing..shed the suit quick!!
Started off using the floating basket..alot of rocks..
had to abandon that quick...ran into CLAY bottom,,
Got out the 560 waterproof probe and fanned the bottom...
Then the wind came up..so I hit the land with with the Excal 800
Still managed to pull a few more - a Merc, buffalo nickle and a couple Wheaties..

[size=medium]Here's the loot....[/size]

[size=medium]Can you see the Merc..in the basket
They blend in to well!!![/size]

Nice Finds again Skully! I knew that you wouldn't let us down without coming back with a Gold Ring. Congrats on that! The really worn Merc must be either 1920's - 1930's, but it sure is hard to tell. I also like the old Toy Race Car. I think it is a Tootsie Toy and it should say on the inside of it. Keep the Great Finds comin' Skully! Makes the winter up here go by quicker. Good Luck and HH.

You found an old swimming hole...Time to go back and find some of the gold rings which are usually prevalent in this enviroment..Highschool rings and wedding bands for sure....
