Silver & coins today

[steve in so la]

I got out early and hit some parks today, dug about 90 coins, 2 silver, a truck & asst junk jewelry.

The big ring is junk but it sure does sparkle in the sunlight. It appears to be copper based. The other ring is stamped sterling and the Snow White pin is stamped 925. Good luck to all who get out, Steve in so az

the older I get the less I want to dig rock hard bermuda grass. Of course in Oregon it's always soft digging Steve

This time of the year, its easy diggin'. It wont be in about 2 months when it stops raining and everything dies. Most of the places around here water their lawn so that isnt to much of a problem.
It never ceases to amaze me how much you get out of the playgrounds. I have 6-8 different playgrounds around here, and every once in a while I find a dollar or two, but not very often.

Doing great as usual Steve! And that may be a Zircon or just plain old glass! I have a hard time distinquishing Zircons from diamonds when viewing them with my eyes! I found a snowwhite charm in a playground one time, and it was so little I had to take the chips and test them with my detector. I also, best I can remember, found a silver ring like the one you found! A child's ring I believe! WTG......that's a lot of Tot Lots to detect, no wonder you do so well!

God Bless!
