About 35 detectorists met at these two baseball diamonds for an organized meet this week-end. Just a super week-end too! Everyone went home with some prizes.

Of course there were no restaurants to eat nearby, so I survived on buffalo jerky, pepperettes and some beer. Life was just dandy.

So, after digging up some buried (marked) tokens with my 1500 and all of this other stuff........

I won a ONE OUNCE 999,9 pure silver coin and a 1918 silver 5 cent coin (Fishscale).

But....I also dug these, and they were noy buried for the hunt. Both coins were at a reasonable depth, and were originals. <img src="/metal/html/grin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":grin"> <img src="/metal/html/grin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":grin"> <img src="/metal/html/grin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":grin">

The heat was so intense in the afternoon, so I opted along with several others to do some garbage dump digging. I was rewarded with these glass bottles and a silver baby spoon with "PAT. OCT 2 1899" stamped on the back.
Well, when it was over, I did a water dig in a lake on the way home and found two ankle bracelets, an earring and some change. Man, what a great weekend!
