Went to one of the schools that I've been hunting. I wasn't finding much and got a nickel hit. Dug it up and it was a small thin ring (0.8g). I thought it was junk. When I got home and cleaned it, I found that it was cracked. I spread it open and looked for markings. I found a 925 mark on it...The Time Ranger did well !!!
Congrats on your first silver find. I will never forget finding the 1st silver and first gold ring. This is the most exciting hobby I have ever found, and the most addicting. Don't worry there will be more rings and hopefully more silver coins, but that is not why we who enjoy detecting go out in the hot sun, cold weather, wind and just plain yucky weather. It is nice to find silver and gold, but It is the beep of the machine that keeps us mesmerized and the prospect of what we might find on the next hunt. It is hard to explain to someone who has never really detected what causes the addiction or the excitement. I guess they will loose the items and we will clean up after them gladly. HH. Jake
