December Digs ....

[Dancin' Dave]

Hi Guys,

Looks like a Nor' Easter has shut down detecting here in upstart New York for awhile. Hopefully, the snow will melt away soon so we can get in a couple of more detecting days before the end of the year.

Here's a pic of some of my finds from the past two digs. It was nice to find a few Indians that hadn't been eaten away by the ground conditions. The ring is 10K with a red garnet. The aluminum coin is from a "President coin game" that Shell Oil had back in the 60's.

Have fun out there!

Man that is sweet. I love the v nickels. Got one myself last night. What kind of machine you swinging? Hope you get a couple more days to dig. Good luck.

Very nice coins you found and an awesome ring. I hope you're not shut out for the season. Been raining here in Maine for 2 solid days

Great digs Dave! What year is the Mercury dime? Looks like 1915, or 16? Looks like what we find here in the PanHandle of Idaho.

Congrats---I would love to find one of those big Walkers--I can remember how they sounded rolling round and round before they settled to the table top with that distinctive ringing that Only silver could make.Only you old timers remember this.

Really nice indians & V's considering how corroded they often appear. All great finds and the earlier Walking half dollars are one of my favorite finds..the rest is gravy.
