Diamond Ring / Old Homecoming Token / Old Laxative Token / Silver and Other Old Coins

Well-known member
Since we now have a 1/2 foot of snow on the ground, I figured I would post my finds from the last 3 weekends. All finds were made at public sites with my Minelab eTrac.
Surprise find was that diamond 925 silver ring. It pegs my electronic diamond tester after calibrating. It was a 12-40 signal found about 3 inches deep on on old playground/practice field area close to an old
school. I knew dirt had been moved around in that area but gave it a shot anyway. A 1939 Wheat penny was also found in the area.
The old Homecoming token was found in a very junky area. The other token is a Cascarets candy coated laxative token. I believe I found the older version which would put it somewhere shortly after the turn of the century. The 2 ringer bullet was found at the same site.
The 1899 barber dime was found in a pounded park and was 10+ inches deep. I dug a nail in the same hole which was very close to this dime. The 1917 merc dime was also found in the area and was 9-10 inches deep.
One of the 1939 quarters was part of a pocket spill with a 1954 silver dime and 2 wheat pennies in the same hole.
Hopefully winter is not here to stay.
Thanks for looking!
Dave

Outstanding, you are a wizard with the etrac ! (y)
 
Dave,

Didn't make it up north this summer, with the snow now I don't think I'll point that way anytime soon. Did any of you guys get over to Battle Lake for road construction project this summer? They were redoing the road near what used to be the old ball park.
 
I like the coins that face right the most....YES, I have said that before....Beautiful diamond ! GREAT SCORE ! Got a few of those 4 leaf clovers also...
Nice variety of finds....Fishing, silver, Ih's , buff's , v's, barber, keys, knife, tokens, jewelry, ammo, tools...
Sounds like a grocery list except things you want to pick up out in the field...
Very....very...nice !

Hey Elmy,
Yep, those right facing barber and buffalos are always a welcome sight to see in the hole.
Thanks for taking a look.
