My uncle lost his 1949 AAA baseball championship ring he earned after hitting a grand slam against the Braves in Memphis. He lost the ring 12 years ago in his back yard. The 86 year old Iwo Jima survivor (wounded twice on that island) didn't ask me to look for it. I kinda insisted I give it a try. Well, after digging about 20 targets that 18K gold honker of a ring with 13 diamonds showed its beautiful self. It made my day handing him that ring. That ring has sentimental value through the roof !!! Etrac numbers were 12-34.
Anyways over at that 1820's circa house I pulled out 2 more silver quarters (1939 and another 1943). A cool thimble from the 30's - 40's popped out (says Luzianne 100% good coffee). The biggest beaver tail pull tab I ever seen popped out (wish they put dates on those things - make it more fun digging them up). Also found a neat looking piece of lead that reminds me of an old bullet mold (looks like you can make buckshot with it). Also found 7 wheats, a huge chunk of camp lead, lots of bullets and another 1911 "V" nick. I'll let you know if I find anything else.
Good Luck at Your Sites,
