Hot again here today. But had been out with a friend yesterday, and found a 1919 Wheat back, so thougth that I would go back to the same park today, and take the smaller coil as the area I was hunting has tons of trash.

Had just got started when I get this screaming signal pounding in my ears. Drop down and start digging and out pops a metal piece of a bracelet. Would have loved to seen this thing in one piece. The piece that I found, has 2 rows of 11 stones on the top, and each side has a row of 11 stones. It's heavy, but no markings. Still a pretty neat item to pull from the ground.

Kept swinging, and finding a little clad, then out pops a snap or button with the emblem and writing on the top that says PHAT FARM. If it's a button, it's real heavy.

Kept going, and at 5 inches, I got this nickel signal, and almost didn't dig it. It would have been a big mistake. The ground is dry and hard, but for some reason it was a little soft in this area, so I took the chance that it might be a nickel. Imagine my surprise when out popped a mans 10 K gold band. I must be on some type of a roll this year. This is my 3rd gold ring in about a month. :icon_sunny:
Guess I'll have to dig more of those nickel sounds.

Hope you all were able to get out and have some great finds too.

Very nice!! Any writing on the wrench looking object? Is it part of a watch or what I wonder? The phat thingy might be a fraternity pin? Hope those are real diamonds in the wrench looking peice, and possibly white gold? I'm dreaming huh? HH Tom

The wrench looking object is part of a bracelet. Try as I might, I can't find any writing on it at all. If you get up close to the item, you can see where the studs or bar were attached, but they have been broken off. I believe that it is just part of a kids piece of jewelry. But, it is real heavy. I don't believe that the stones are real. Darn it! :tongue3:

NICE ring!!! You never get tired of pulltabs
when you get enough of those babies.

I must admit, I've never got enough of those babies, but the pull tabs are a complete different item. :icon_sunny:

You're probably right, but I haven't figured out how they would have attached it to the clothing. As heavy as that little piece is, I almost think that it's a knob off of something. Thanks for the info. :icon_king:

Congrats on the sweet goldie!! Woowhoo!!
and the other goodies too.

I think the thing with the CZ stones goes on little girls shoes,
fashionable little darlings huh. It goes across the first lace up nearest the toes.

Smiles!
