Finds from last several hunts. Silver, wheaties & CW bullets

Took me a lot of hours and many, many hunts to get enough good finds to make a decent post. Hunted a couple of older yards a few months ago. Just knew I was going to clean up on silver at both. Ended up with a big pile of wheats, one '39S Mercury dime that was probably 10 inches deep and only found because it was below a detected wheatie (always recheck those holes!), a '64 Washington (amongst trash and found only with the 6x8 sef, went over it with the larger pro coil earlier and didn't find it), a decorative little sterling womans ring, and a few dollars in new/clad change. Also found a few other odds and ends that are pictured. Some "If found mail to..." Frigidare freezer key tags, a child's play spoon, harmonica reed, WW2 coat button, and a clay marble (don't remember what the numbers were on the marble.....lol) etc.. Was very dissapointed that there wasn't more silver. I'll hit the yards again when I don't have anything else to do, see if I can't squeeze out some more goodies. Also pictured is a nice silver man's ring with the words "True Love Waits" inscribed on the outside. Found that fairly shallow at a local park, as well as a deep wheatie that was stuck in a broken cork top bottle top (weird). Also dug a 9" deep sterling woman's ring all bent up in the same area, kind of an indian style ring but no stone (forgot to put it in the group for the picture). The last picture has a few assorted civil war bullets I picked up in the same brushy area that I posted about in an earier post about hunting bullets in the brush, and one last mercury ('43 plain, near mint condition) and a wheat. Both coins were found in the same pounded park that I found the two rings in, and were found 7 to 9 inches deep with my 6x8 sef coil and using Bill S.'s trashy park pattern (thanks Bill, works pretty good and especially when one is in too much of a hurry to dig everything. I skipped a lot of penny signals and a few nickels. Will go back for those later).
Happy Hunting and Merry Christmas to all! I am hoping to get in a few more hunts before the winter freeze sets in but ...hard to say when that will happen here in Swampeast Missouri
