My personal best streak of finding silver coins on 5 consecutive hunting days has ended. I was very optimistic of finding at least one more while finishing up the wheatie yard, but it was not to be. I only managed to muster 3 more wheats and a 190? IHP. I then set my sights on the excavation site at the park, but got skunked again, finding 3 more wheats and a couple of plated rings.........
So, today I began a new permission........I should have passed. more than half the yard was ash/junk pit and held no treasures.......not even an interesting relic. Disappointed, I decided to break out the Compadre and head to a small park that was in the same neighborhood. 10 minutes in to the hunt a ring popped out of the grass at 3 inches. It appeared to be gold, but I've been fooled before. Back in the car, I pulled out the magnifier and sure enough......10K!! Satisfied, I drove home to show the wife. She was still out running errands, so I decided to poke around a deserted park that has been pounded over the years.......including by me. I'd found a few goodies there the past couple of years, IHPs, old wheats, silver nickels......never did I expect to see this.
A second gold ring!?!?! Yup........
Maybe I can start a new and different streak?
Thanks for lookin' in and good luck to everyone on your hunts!

. The rings sure took the sting out of that, Kray!
