Gold Fever

[OhioCoinHunter]

The other evening I hunted for about an hour before it started getting dark. I got a 12-27 signal that was about 5 inches deep. It turned out to be what I believe is a gold ring with fancy initials engraved on it. Here's what it looked like right after I dug it.

Today after work I went back to the same site and dug what I later discovered to be a gold plated copper locket. I opened it with a knife when I got home and discovered the remains of a photo inside.

I feel like the man with the Midas touch!

Then I got a high toned signal that turned out to be a 1911D Barber dime.

About a foot away from where I dug that Barber I got a nickel signal that turned out to be a 1935 Buffalo nickel.

The weather was absolutely perfect and I had a great time. Here are some pics of my finds from the hunts.

Here's some video from the hunts.

Awesome find on that gold ring and silver

Great Hunt, Nice Finds!! Awesome Old Gold!!!

I'm pretty sure that pendent/button has a design on it. This is what I would do:

Get some Navel Jelly and apply it with an old toothbrush, let it sit for a couple of minutes, then brush clean. After the crud is removed you can use a wash of water and baking soda to neutralize any remaining acid.

I think it would make a video tutorial for this cleaning method.

HH!!

I posted this on your vid also
