Gold streak over...Silver streak begins..3 pieces today!

REVIER

Well-known member
Hunting at a park I have been to before but I never was able to hunt the fields but more specifically the sidelines of the many kiddie soccer fields this place has.
This is the take from just the sidelines of a few.
I didn't have the time or energy to dig all signals, plenty left behind.
Found a ton of coins, a cool flipping coin I assume the officials use and oh yea...3 frickin' jewelry pieces on one hunt!
Two earrings and a nice little ring with I think an onyx stone.
The wife says the big round earring has real diamond chips, the shell earring has some weight to it and comes in at almost 4.5 grams.

That never happened before, It was warm today but gets back to the colder weather tomorrow, however...somehow I think I will still make it out there again anyway.
I gotta get these sidelines hunted as much as I can before season starts.
Look at the stuff I found, high tone quarters, dimes and copper cents galore, nickels coming out my ying yang, 3 silver pieces.
Seems like a pretty virgin area to me and better yet, a virgin area with a ton of great targets.
I would bet you there is more silver out there and probably gold, too.
Stay tuned...
 
REVIER, awesome finds:cheers: I am still waiting to find virgin dirt. I went to an older elementary school today that I didn't think anyone in my area would have hunted but I saw signs that someone beat me there. I found some clad they missed but nothing like your fiinds.

More nickels than dimes.
That rarely happens even at a clad-rich site.
About a 30 degree drop from yesterday's freaky warm February weather...don't care, I am heading back there this morning.
Gotta cover as much of this site as possible while the soil is not frozen and before soccer season starts.

Many of my gold and jewelry finds were at sites that were pounded by myself and many others and that would be both silver and gold.
Do the math and realize how difficult it is to get the small area of even many coils over every square inch of any site.
Add in masking problems and that sometimes great targets will be recognized much more more easily from one direction than others and you can understand why I have almost the same positive attitude about finding jewelry at most sites no matter what went on before.
A site like this, however, is a bit more special and has a higher percentage that I can find more jewelry than some others because it seems to have been skipped over by most hunters.
Their loss...my gain, and when this kind of opportunity presents itself you have to exploit it for all its worth.
 
Great haul! Good approach to coaxing better finds. I think attitude counts heavily for success.
Congrats!

Don't say your gold streak has ended.Remember m:jump::jump:y prediction THE BEST GOLD AND SILVER YEAR EV________ER!!!

Give up on extending my gold streak?
Never!
I look for that stuff on every hunt and hope for it on every signal...it is rare but it is out there and I seem to be pretty lucky in that area lately.
If the 3 I already found in Jan were to be it for 2015 I will consider this a great year, but the year is just beginning so who knows what the md gods have in store?
