I started this afternoon door knocking at old houses to get permission but no one was home. I headed to my junior high built in the late 70's for some clad and maybe another ring. I decided to hunt out front where the kids wait for buses. My first signal said quarter at 5 inches. Up came a quarter sized piece of unidentified metal. 2 feet later I get the same signal. I had just started and was still fresh and naive so I figured I would dig out this second piece of junk. Boy was I surprised when out popped the 1957 quarter! I got excited when my next signal said dime at 5 inches. Out came a.......1990 rosie. Back to reality. Some kid lost this 1957 quarter within the last 17 years. half an hour later I found the silver ring in the same area. 50 minutes total hunt time
Next I hit the local high school built in the late 80's to see if I could hit more jewelry. 45 minutes later I had both pendants and some more coins. The pendant with the black stone is pewter and the stone is not real, but it is a cool find none the less. The copper pendant predates the school and was 6 inches deep, much deeper than the other targets. If you look closely right side up and upside down you will see:
SYS, SWS, SMS, and SrS. Weird huh
