Just thought I'd show what I have found in the last 3 weeks. All the good stuff is from one church site about a mile from my home. I've just hunted church grounds this month. Ah, the perks of being a retired pastor and moderator of our Association.
The rings are gold plated as is the penny. The large ring by the gold plated penny is made out of a 1943 half crown and not plated. Oh and the large 'silver' coin in the crowd is a lucky coin- dog owners on one side cats on the other. It hit like a silver dollar and one ribbed edge stuck up after a shovel of dirt- I really thought, for a moment, I hit it big, but as soon as I touched it, I knew my luck had not changed.
Previously I have only found one ring, silver with an abalone shell/mother of pearl 'stone' at the same church. I am hoping improvement is a performance bump and not a probability blip. Its been a good month, so far!
