So I've been hitting some different spots instead of the old parks and fining some pretty neat stuff.... the only one found in a park was the ring... I found this within the first 45 mins of the hunt... it was only about 3 " and hit 12-46
My fave is the brooch, looks to be in the style of William Kerr and/or the Unger Brothers, still researching it... looks to be turn of the century 1880 1910 i REALLY wish it had a hall mark along with the sterling stamp. i think she is mighty perty!!! Found her on a sidewalk strip abut 4" right up against a big old sycamore. She hit a solid 12-47 all way around and i figured my first silver quarter...
the Merc came from of all places a foreclosed home... My wife does Avon "mostly an an excuse to gossip with friends and do the girly thing" Any hoo i was taking her to one of her friends house to drop off an order, these things can last up to an hour, there is an early 50's park close by so i told her to just text me when she was ready... As i was pulling out of the drive i noticed the house next door posted and abandoned.... Well not being one to miss and opportunity i parked my truck and broke out the old etrac.. very first signal was the pretty good shape 41 Merc!! WOOOHOO also found a couple bucks in clad and two wheaties... shallow 2 1/2 " and 12-44 all way round
If anyone has seen this exact brooch i sure would appreciate any info online original ones can go anywhere from 60.00 up to 950.00 she sure is intricate and very a very pretty piece... thanks for looking fella's...
