Hi gang. Went to my favorite park this afternoon with only an hour to hunt, but, it turned out to be a wonderful day! I found my 4th James Avery piece and I am sure this is a find that myself and others have overlooked a number of times. This was a rather weak and unstable 'zinc' signal showing a depth of 7". I was on my way back to my truck and for some unknown reason, I decided to check it out. To my pleasant surprise, it was a JA silver earring at about 6":
Also, I would like to know how these stupid things can sink!.......I have found these as deep as 4 and 5 inches!! (I think they are a foil seal for some kind of drink):
I am getting much better with my F75.......I pulled this nickel from 5" with this piece of foil sitting just about like it is in the picture. I had to shorten my swing to about 1/2" side-to-side in order to pick out the 29/30 for the nickel over the 17/19 for the foil:
I have no idea what these could be, but, they were found about 10" apart with each giving a nice nickel signal. The two fit together quite nicely:
The take for the hour was nothing to rave about, but, hey, the silver made it all worth the while!!"
