I got contact with the individual arrangement was made to go to his house and Look his wedding ring.i arrive and found that house was built in 1920s so I thought maybe find other stuff. Well searching for the I found vintage makeup compact, watch key and clad coins which I give the Individuals kids, but no ring it was tunstin ring. Individual often me some money for going out and searching for sharing but I refused the money I told on me was my pleasure to look for it and left. Decided to stop by the old street tear out that I been huntin on my way home, glad I did . At first I was finding just pieces of copper and walking towards my truck got a 12-44/45 signal and another junk copper. Out pops a coin and I thought a wheaty then saw it had readed edge .there she was lady liberty seating down , a bucket list find my first ever seated liberty dime .
