Quinceanera - Young Girl's 15th
Still getting the occasional Silver but nothing as great as the previous pre-storm days. Here's my take from a few hunts.
Got a surprise in my scoop with this 10K Quinceanera bracelet piece ( thanks to my lovely wife, Lise for helping me spell it correctly!). It's from the Kinzli Forum that I learned about these with some rings posted there a ways back. In the Hispanic culture there is a celebration of a young girl's 15th birthday. (Hence Quinceanera, "15th celebration")
Not show is about a dozen wheaties from the 40's and 50's all very ugly. The 1945 War Nickel was encased in black gunk and need a half hour soak in hydrochloric acid. The small center piece is from some cheap jewelery but interesting enough for me to keep. It sure gave me a merry chase falling out of the scoop each time. The toe ring is Silver and I'm trying to decide if it's Ring Case worthy.
I Threw back a Merc (I think) accidentally .. but will probably find it again one of these days.
Saw another detectorist yesterday (1st time in about 6 months). He had a PI machine too but was pendulum swinging about 6" above the sand. I waved to him and smiled but he didn't see me (I think). The way he was swinging .... "MY" goodies were safe.
