Garrett AT Pro :garrett: A Real Heartbreaker Couple Of Finds :detecting:

[tabman]

I went back to my new spot that I've been detecting lately to see what else I could find. It was rough going at first, because I wasn't finding anything but trash and wheat pennies, 13 of them. Finding wheat pennies just spurs me on. Finally I got a strong mixed signal that I decided to check out. It turned out to be a 1940 nickel stuck to a 1927 Mercury Dime. You got to dig those iffy signals. Right after that I got a Buffalo Nickel, and Car Wash Token. Then I got slapped in the face twice with two gold filled rings. The wedding band one gave off a high audio tone, so when I popped it out of the ground I was puzzled. I mean it looked gorgeous, so I figured it had to be something like maybe a silver coin just underneath it. Nope! My heart sank after I saw the 'GF' on the inside of the band. I said a few bad words and went back to detecting. About 5 feet away I got a screaming high tone with the VDI number in the high 80's. I dug down about 1 1/2 inches and popped a 1953 Washington Quarter in some really firm clay type ground. The rest of the site is mostly soft loamy type soil. I had my ups and downs today, so I thought I'd leave on a high note. I was using the Pro Zero mode with full sensitivity.

There's no doubt in my mind that there are several real gold rings at this site and I'm going to find one of them.

Well....on the plus side, gold filled is better then gold plate. You got some silver coins and the potential for gold rings at a later date. Good luck.....hope you score a "GOLD"!

Boy those silver coins sure do look good coming out of the ground!

Years ago I used to carry silver coins around in my pocket like it was nothing. Now when I find one in the dirt I jump up and down with joy.

No no no!
Tabman, it is possible that I did not explain well. You think that English is not my language, sorry. I wanted to say: silver is well conserved underground, copper coins underground deteriorate. I'm sure they left the land, of course. I also would jump. I really like.
Sorry another time, friends

All is good Senda, no worries...we understood you right, over here we all had silver coins in our pockets up until 1964...then everything went to clad.....our dirt silver generally comes out of the ground nice and shiny like it was dropped yesterday...the water silver gets all gray colored and pitted sometimes...no need to apologize for the translation, we understood you just fine Brother! I know it takes a lot of effort on your part to make a nice post or reply with the translation, you are cool here with us!

What Mud said. Years ago we would have never imagined that we be totally elated to find a silver coin in the dirt since it was so common to carry them years ago.
