DSCN2441.JPG DSCN2439.JPG On Sunday Sue and I hunted a soccer field in a small Connecticut town. Finds were plentiful but not old. Total for the three hour hunt was 101 coins worth $21.74 and two small sterling silver rings. We'll definitely go back there again to hunt the parts of the field we didn't hunt this time.

We weren't cherry picking at all. We always have our detectors set to allow nickel signals in. Dug a lot of tabs though...………..

Those nickles could have been gold too!

The nickel signals were pulltabs……...no gold and no nickels. We don't cherry pick, we take what we get.

Ok. Not trying to be negative or anything. That's a nice average on the larger coins over pennies and dimes for sure. Grats!
Still....bet there's gold out there!

Yes, they are. It's the first time we ever dug three in one hunt.

IMGP0087.JPG DSCN1263 (1).JPG There may be, and if there is we hope to find it. Here's a couple of ring finds from a couple of years ago......no cherry picking here. Thanks for the reply.
