I had a free hour today and I took my AT Pro over to a site that I have worked over. I never expect much here but today I did pretty good. My first good signal, 82-83, turned out to be a lunker sterling ring with little stones on the perimeter. The second good signal was shocking. It read a solid 77 VDI. I expected it to be a screw cap. I dug my plug and instantly saw a copper rim of either a coin or a button. I got out the video camera and caught the reveal of a SWEET 1836 US Large Cent! Enjoy the pictures.

That's a honking silver ring. Fantastic! Does it have those fancy British hallmarks on the inside?

Great job saving the large cent and silver ring. You're having a great month. Beat my LC for the month by 15 years :evil6:.
