In my last post I said maybe I will get some gold or silver on my next hunt. Well on my next hunt I did. I got a nice silver ring.

I went to a tiny little park I have detected a few times in recent months. I went there a couple of times when I first started detecting and found a few coins, but experience and a better machine helped me find more goodies. I went there yesterday and spent 3 hours swingin the CZ21. There is a lot of trash in spot so I mostly cherry picked the good signals and an occasional promising mid tone.

I ended up with 71 coins with a face value of $3.58, a house key, a heavy stainless spoon, a CROWN SILVER plated fork with all the plating gone, a 1954 D wheatie, a silver ring, a few tabs, a couple of aluminum cans and a few bits of construction aluminum.

The ring was just under the grass. When I pinpointed I could tell it was very shallow so I just stuck in my travel and pried up and the ring just popped out of the grass like you see it in the picture.

I was going to detect the scout camp yesterday. It was snowing here and at camp but the snow was supposed to be light at camp so I started out. The roads were in bad shape so I went back home. Now we have a major storm coming in so it looks like it may be a while before I can hunt again.

So some gas money, social distancing exercise in the fresh air and a nice silver for the pile. Thanks for looking, stay safe and may your coil lead you to good things.

Thanks to all for the nice comments. The snow hit big time (10 inches here, but only 3 inches 20 minutes east of me). With a little luck the snow may be gone to east of me before the new year so I can get out again. The scout camp is really snowed in and it is even colder to the north west where it is located. It may be 3 or 4 weeks before I can get back there. Here’s hoping for warmer weather.

Stay safe and have a great holiday everyone. For those of you in warmer unfrozen ground places, KEEP SWINGIN.
