Hang in there! I know we all strive for silver and gold but clad days pay the battery bills. I don't know what machine you were using but from the looks of it, you were digging all the right things. Good luck and keep us posted!
Cool skeleton key,, save that bad boy. I see you pulled some brass,, aka brass nozzle, lock, and brass keys. You would be surprised at how much brass you will find over a short period of time. The junk man will pay you gas and battery money for that stuff.
Congrats and keep at it.
What Machine did you end up buying??
Thanks for the reality post. Usually all we see here are the great finds that many people make, when in reality every one of us digs lots and lots of trash. That's what makes the good stuff great. I don't consider myself a great digger, but if you dig enough holes, your bound to find some good stuff. Thanks for posting. [emoji106]
