11.06.06 back to the front yard again (1893 IH & wedding band))
After yesterday's digs that landed me 5 wheaties all from the 1940's and a 1941 Walker Half dollar I couldn't wait to get back there after work today. Had an hour or so before dark and picked up three more wheaties from the 1940's again and more memorial cents. I also dug a cheap ring, think it's cheap... the metal band is peeling off, missing one stone.
Seems like all of the sudden it was getting dark quick. So I hopped out to the back yard real quick just to see if anything popped up. I could see my screen on the detector reading "penny, 4 inches" and almost didn't dig it, trying to find a penny in the dark dirt isn't easy so figured I'd wait til tomorrow again. At this place all the memorial cents all from the 1970's, have been around 3-4 inches deep.
Glad I decided to dig this one! A beauty of a 1893 Indian Head Cent with four super nice diamonds! Pic doesn't show them well though.
Can't wait til tomorrow after work!
UPDATE: the ring isn't too cheap, reads 18k, real diamonds? Is it gold plated then? Why is it peeling off?
