Gold Ring, 5 Silver Dimes, 31 Wheats and 3 War Nics.

I think a friend of mine turned me on to a virgin site. We found only few clad coins. The site is an old community swimming pool and picnic area. Almost all of the coins are 6 to 9 inches deep and have wobbly/iffy signals.

The pile of clad and the gold ring came from a park. My friend found 5 silver dimes, 4 war nicks, 15 wheats, 2 silver jewlery items and one big junk ring.

Thanks everyone, here’s another shot of the ring, it’s missing two stones. .

Wow, Anthony!

I haven't seen you post that many oldies in one hunt in a while!
Very nice!! Looks like a virgin spot to me too.

When are you going back?

I’m going to try and get back out there this weekend, Saturday.

Thanks Captain SE

Very nice finds! I was wondering about that blank round, tho, is it a pistol round, how is it marked?

Yes here’s a photo SUPER X, strange to me too, 22 HMR blank?
Thanks.

Wonder if that blank round went to a starter's pistol? Only reason I can think of for a .22 blank.

Like a Flintstones chewable multivitamin, you got a great day's supply of vitamins and minerals. Sun, and silver. Minus zinc, of course.

Great finds! The cartridge looks to me like a 22 Winchester Magnum blank or bird shot round, hope there's more there for you, Scott

BIG congrats on the new spot. Love the ring and WOW on the old clad! Good stuff!

Thanks again everybody. I opened the round last night and it had rat/snake shot inside. Now I remember that back then they were made like that instead of the clean plastic head they have today.
