So this past Sunday I hit one of my favorite places. After all the snow I was hoping to find some lost rings. Got to the parking lot and started hunting. Well about 10 yards from where I parked. I get a banging high tone. I thought for sure it was gunna be a an aluminum can. Kicked the pine needles off the surface and reviled the edge of big silver. I about fell over in shock. It was a 1921 Morgan. Checked the area and about 4 inches away I got the mercury dime. Stood up and scanned the area and wham I get a quarter signal about a foot away from the Morgan. Simply amazed.

Well I had the day off so I decided to try my luck. She shined on me once again. This time with 5 wheats another Mercury dime another buffalo a silver spoon that seems very light and soft. Not sure on The stamps. It doesn’t say sliver. But it’s monogrammed with 3 initials. Last but not least I found what I was hoping for a 14k white gold band. 620540FB-5E26-469E-B00F-9600D59BDDC3.jpeg 620540FB-5E26-469E-B00F-9600D59BDDC3.jpeg BF9E4226-325E-41AF-9C6A-C21186FF579A.jpeg CD1A7668-E904-46E0-9EB4-D08165648D54.jpeg

Nice group of coins and that ring. Congrats.

EDIT: Does it say "COIN" next to the three W's? If so, I would guess it is definitely silver.

Congrats on some excellent finds. Never shrug off those blazing signals that sound like a can. I have found 3 Morgans, all in farm fields, and every one gave me a loud can signal, because they were only inches from the surface.

Not sure. There is dirt in the letters that I need to brush out.

Thanks everybody. Good luck and happy hunting. I’ll clean up the spoon and see if it says coin.

I agree great finds.

The Morgan is hard to come by. Silver spoons don't come up often either.

So I cleaned up the letters and it does say coin. Now if I can find out what the 3 w’s mean. I’d like to find out an age range.
