I managed to get out a little bit over the weekend. I hunted with TNetters, Smittyman, P@tch and Kurt Stuben.

Here is a pic of the weekend's coins. There are (10) wheaties in there, but no silver coins.

I managed to get a clad JFK half, 2 rings and a kiddie police badge.

I got a nice high tone, and this nugget appeared in the hole (sorry for the blurry pic, I get excited).

A quick wipe revealed Cub Scout silver!

Now you know why a Cub Scout cries, because he lost his ring!

Silver ring # 8 for the year.

Thanks for looking, and best of luck on your hunts!

WELL I THINK A SILVER CUB SCOUT RING BEATS A ROSIE ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. CONGRATS ON A RING A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT ONE OF.

Good seeing you over the weekend.

This kid looked all over for that ring, but just couldn't find it. He should have used a Deus!

I found one like that in my other lake, one of my favorite finds because I was a scout. I was out yesterday in a cornfield that was turned and then tilled that I had found a half Real and a War nickle in the early fall. I got a 80's signal and out pops this. Made me think of you. Turned out to be an aluminum "play money" coin. Thought I had a folded Real. 20170521_1641081.jpg 20170521_1640331.jpg

I checked it TWICE... it was bent before I dug it. I looked closely for my "signature" shovel mark and it was not present, thank God. For once, this was NOT my fault. It displays well in the case though.

It's been a couple years but I "Think" they were made that way for a 1 size fits all. Well some of them at-least.

Wore one years ago when a scout. Outgrew it and ended up having to have it cut off my finger. 😒

Confucius say "when Boy Scout cry, metal detectorist of future smile".

Nice job Tom!
