Hey all! Some of these finds are from the last month. The first set of pics are from last night. They are from an early 1900' s farm house. It made me do the ole happy dance! I was checking an area by an old hand pump water well. I got a good signal , and took the plug out. Checked it again and it screamed at me! Got my locater in there and pulled out a wheatie, checked the hole and pulled another wheatie, checked again and pulled another wheat! I figured that had to be it but I checked again ,still something there! I pulled a small clump of dirt out and there they were! Two 1942 merc's and a 1942P war nickel!! It made my day that's for sure! The wheats aren't pictured. The pendant I found was on the way back to the car! It was a solid 42. It has Jesus on one side and Mother Mary on the other! Don't know what is made of , there are no markings on it...... The next set of pics are from about one month ago when we went on vacation to Springfield, Georgia to see a friend of mine. I didn't have much time to hunt , but, I did get to hunt on his property for a bit. I found this Montreal fire dept. badge in his yard!! I couldn't believe it. What's this doing so far from home? I was not sure if it was real or not. Then within a 10 by 10 area I found these Canadian coins!! A 1947 and a 1949 nickel. And a 1955 Canadian penny! My friend told me his house was built around 1980. I have no idea what was there before that. Interesting!!........ The last set of pics are from different hunts that my wife and I had recently. There is a 1944S merc , that came from a favorite spot I like to hunt when I don't know where to go! A 1946 Rosie that my wife found and a 1943P war nickel! The Saint Christopher medal I found behind a bus garage! The school is no longer there. It dated back to the early 1900's! The ring looks really cool,but, sorry to say it's not real. Just a quick heart attack for me when I dug it up!! We have also found a number of wheats along the way along with the clad. And of course, plenty of junk!! Hope you enjoy!! HH J.B.

Looks like you have been hitting pay dirt. Congratulations.
Thanks Randy and 7centsworth ! I have been trying to find the badge in different places on the Internet. I get close but nothing yet. I noticed Montreal has a Facebook page and I'm going to post the badge there and see what happens. I have no clue on the history behind the Canadian finds. I did ask a couple fireman while I was there in Georgia ,but, they had no clue either. I do work with a part-time fireman in my hometown, and he says that in most places a badge number is assigned once. So someone in Montreal might be able to look the badge number up! We will see what happens! HH J.B.
