When at work at lunch I like to spend this limited time to do some md'ing. On Saturday 06-07-08 I hit a local school and hit the wood chip area. Under a monkey bar like structure, maybe 10' x 10' I found a couple of cents and a sterling earring, all under the chips. I searched more but had it cleaned out.

On Tuesday 06-10-08 I hit the same school again. As there was kids around I searched the grass areas instead. Dusk hit and the kids left. On the way to the car I dunked under the monkey bar structure one more time. Low and behold in the middle on the chips in plain sight was another sterling earring. Same size - Humm. Picked it up and it was the companion to the Saturday find.

I know it was not there on Sat as I would have seen it or certainly my metal detector would have found it.
I have never had an experience like this one. Thought I would share this.

Nothing surprises me in this hobby anymore!

Silver is always nice, no matter how you get it.

It might have fallen off right next to the pole and after you left another kid kicked it into the middle.

I allways grab the chips from around hte pole and move it to the center.

Perhaps the next day she was showing her Mom how and where she lost her earring and threw it down and it disappeared too.

Nice find. You are the only person I know that found a pair of earring's. WTG
