2009 Best Finds - It's Time to Post Ur Best !!!! Let's see em !!!!

Let's see your best coins, jewelry, etc, etc, etc etc. My year has been a little bleak, so let's see whatcha got for the year

I did manage about $350.00 in clad

My best accomplishment this year was making it into the Whites 2010 Calendar (their 1st year of publishing)

Hope everyone's 2010 is the best ever !!!

I can't compete with the gold, but I did have a good year.
Good amount of clad you recovered. What is your secret.

Can't take credit for the hoard from England...that's the cover story ....
Found the nuggets in Nevada (Lake Tahoe area and the big one was found in southern Nevada). The engagement ring was found in an Elementary School Tot Lot under the swings 4 inches down in the wood chips.

Rocky, congrats on making the calendar :thumbsup:

My wife was looking through one of the calendars I got and she saw that beautiful ring
you found and asked me: "When are you going to find something like this?" ::)
(I assured her I was working on it ;D)

A bunch were deleted... ??? ??? I know mine was... It said " FRIENDS " Then It was a picture of 2 friends that I hunt with...The other deleted post was a comment about it....

This thread should be in the 2009 " ANNUAL FINDS " That's just my opinion

When people ask me whats the best thing you have found I say " FRIENDS "

Then I post that and it gets deleted.....Sorry " their " better than any coin or piece of jewelry that was found too.

I'm sure this will get deleted too...
