Change of pace with the Omega

Well-known member
Grabbed the Omega this morning with the 5" coil intact and headed out early to ye ole housing site. Hadn't been there for a while and hadn't done any serious swinging with the Omega since early fall. Both did good. The site was in a giving mood and the Omega was telling me she didn't want to just set and collect dust again and did some nice sniffing among all the trash along the foundations I was hunting. The sterling ring was one of those targets that one wonders how it ever got missed. Just a nice good high tone and silver reading at a 4" depth. Nothing within a foot of it. The 54d Washington and 28s Merc. were in the same hole co-located with a piece of iron. The mangled gold ring is marked 14k and cleaned up well, but my wife says it is suspect. All I can say is it looked darn good to me coming out of the dirt. The other ring came out of a curb strip from about an inch deep, but not marked and probably a fairly recent drop. I have found a couple others just like it in school yards. It was a zinc tone and reading. The wheatie is a 16d. I was running disc. 1, sen. 99, d3 tones and g b of 64. HH jim tn
 
Well done. 3 rings in a day, some beach hunters don't do that well. and 2 silver coins days don't happen very often either. WTG.
 
Nice score I have been itching to find more gold, digging all those pull tabs. Still looking for my first silver coin as well. Keep it up!

Thanks guys. caleb, the Omega loves coins, as I'm sure you know. If there is silver in your sites, the Omega will sniff it out. I probably miss plenty of gold as I am not a "dig it all" hunter, but if a piece is in the nickel or zinc range I have a shot at it. Good hunting everyone. HH jim tn
 
Yeah! What Dave said! :clapping: I wonder how you, a seemingly silver coin targeter, manage to find gold at all...must have some sort of spidey sense or something
Mud.
