I have been having a little bit of luck lately. Nothing too exciting but I’m happy. Short hunts have been the order of the day. Two hours of ninety degrees with a hot sun beating down on you is about all I can take.
A week ago I went up to my mom’s cottage on Marblehead (Sandusky Bay). I took my mom, mother in law and a couple others over to Put-In-Bay (Lake Erie island) but before I did Nate and I hooked up with Golddiver for a little hunt. As Golddiver mentioned we each found silver although his 1911 spanked Nate and I’s 1920 and 1954 ‘s dimes. Still was happy to find a few keepers.
The cottage neighbors prefabbed house going up in one day:
Taking the ferry back from the island:
As for finds… a cool lock.
Friday’s afterwork hunt was nice. I went to park and worked the pull tab area very slowly with the small 7.5” coil and pulled out an old silver cross. This got me in the mood for “old” stuff. So on the way home I stopped at an old site hoping just to dig some old junk. Was surprised to get a silver rosie.
Yes, that is my lawn in the picture. Nice and brown.
Markings on the back of the cross are worn down too much to read.
I got a Roller Roo token and a Golden Rat token:
The rest of the pics:
Definitely a better silver to wheat ratio than last weeks:
Picture of the “old” site. It’s a little overgrown but still worth hunting.

. That USA pin looks like a coupla detectorists fighting over a plug!
What is the Roller Roo? I know what Chuckie Cheese is but not the RR. Glad I am part of a very elite club.
