I had a great time this year, rediscovering a hobby that occasionally makes me do a candy dance in a strangers yard. All finds courtesy of the Garrett Ace 350.

My best "relics" would have to be my military related goodies. I found a WW1 Infantry ring, 2 WW1 buttons, WW2 Sterling Silver air gunner wings, and a smaller button which I think is also from WW2

I found 1 and 1/2 Sterling silver spoons, both monogrammed..

The rings and bling!!! My first ring, not pictured, was kept by the fellow who granted permission on his property, it was a junk copper ring that he was convinced was from the Victorian Age....you can have it dude.

Miscellaneous Coins and Tokens... 030.JPG

A shot of a few oldies...including my oldest (readable) date, 1887!

A group photo of my keepers, along with 135 wheats!

Total clad detected for the year was $77.30! Oh yea, let me mention that my "ground finds" this year, which I keep a separate tally, equaled $22.70. Do the math.... $100.00 even!!! My brain almost exploded when I realized this:laughing7:

And Finally, the best find? My Doozie of a tattoo, that everyone likes, except my Mom.

"My God, what have you done to my baby?!" LOL.

Those are some great finds in my book. I hope that 2015 is as good or better for you.

It just so happens, my ring has gotten a lot of love lately!!! New Tnet member Fun S1ze made a generous offer to own the ring, and he will be the proud owner later on this week. I am going to miss it, but it should belong to someone who served our country, not just a lucky detectorist.
