    Finds from Nov. 20-21

    Hi all!! Too bad t-net has been down for over a week, and I've had to wait to post my finds until now. On Sat. the 20th, I had what I believe to be my best detecting day ever!! Highlights included 2 silver Roosies ('54D, '64D; nos. 16 and 17 for me this year), my 4th gold of the year (a nice, intact 14k bracelet), an intact earring that's unmarked but MIGHT be gold as well, 10 wheats (a new one day record for me), a broken metal army man (looks to possibly be pre wwII; ideas on how to put him back together would be appreciated!!), and some junk bling. Sunday the 21st was MUCH slower. Got out to a couple of old parks w/ Pocket Spill. I ended the day with a small, ornate .925 silver ring. Clad for the 20th was $9.41; for the 21st it was $8.60. Again, any ideas on how to glue/repair the army man would be appreciated. Also looking for an approximate age. Pics below (exclude the wheats and clad). Enjoy!!

    Hi Mark. It's a yellow stone, ornately cut, but probably just colored glass.

    Nice Job Clad I'd hang on to that silver as opposed to selling it right away for scrap, have you seen how silver has been trending the last couple months? Soon it shall be north of $30 an ounce.

    Great finds Paul!

    Congratulations on your 4th gold of the year! You don't need no stink'in etrac!

    Very nice toy soldier. A little super glue applied with a toothpick would probably put his head on straight.

    Always great hunting with you!
