Finds from a short hunt on December 20th. Most were found on a school playground close to where I live. They put wood chips in and it's easy digging. I was surprised to find the number of coins that I did because I've hunted here before and didn't think there would be that much in it. But the Xterra 705 and the 18.75 mhz coil were working to perfection. It was even picking up small pieces of a foil sticker that came off of a car or something. Also spent about 1/2 hour at a local park and found the ring in the center of the picture. I believe it's costume jewelry, but it's my first ring and I'm proud of it. I concentrated on checking under the trees around the ball fields where people will congregate in the shade before and after games. Didn't get them all checked, but it looks promising. Merry Christmas to all and Happy Hunting!
