Saturday's Silver: Rings & Cuff Link

I was able to get on Saturday for a hunt. Todd Lipe showed up at the house promptly at 8:00AM... it was frosty, but we were both ready to go. We hit a couple of woodsy spots with no success, then off to a school, where Smittyman showed up to join the fun and frivolity.
The first hole that I dug, yielded a silver ring with a dangling teddy bear. Smittyman batted his eyes and said he really liked it a lot, and something about how nice it would look of his pinky. I was not paying attention...
After a bit we went for some BoJangles fried chicken, then off to the next spot. I had the Deus set up with my secret silver jewelry program. We three wise men ambled around the next spot for a little bit, then I got a nice high tone, and dug my second silver ring... a little knot. Not 10 minutes later another nice high tone, and out comes a 7 gram sterling cufflink! Made by Fenwick Sailor in the 1950s... best of all it has Mercury on it! Worst of all, I broke it on the way home. I also managed to find 2 dog tags, Ballys token, 5 Wheaties and a little metal sun.

I was bummed that I didn't find the silver coins that I like so much, but my jewelry program worked pretty good.

Thanks for looking and good luck on your hunts!

Thanks OD. I like the silver coins, got 60 last year and would like to get more this year... I have had a slow start his year with only 6 silver coins. I guess a reasonable target would be 75 silver coins, I try not to set goals though, I just try to have fun. The jewelry is just "stuff" I find while looking for silver coins. Spring time will be here soon, the time change is next week, that means hunting after work... Nice!

What is this phantom jewelry program of which you speak? I'm thinking if you found silver coins instead of little girl rings you would be calling it a silver coin program? I do love the cufflink a lot though no matter what program you were using.

Tom, I am so happy somebody is finding something.

You are correct sir, I just made up the "secret silver jewelry" program. It's just Basic1 cross checked with 007.

I like the Mercury cufflink too... I really liked that it had "Mercury" on the back of it... just in case you forgot who the guy in the winged helmet is, just turn it over and there's his name!
