Heavy rain today resulted in quite a few good finds this evening! Rained all day, but cleared up around 4 PM. Went back to the field where I found an 1853 half dime. No old coins, but the jewelry and relics were popping!
The best find of the day was a decent size gold ring. I hadn't found gold this year, so I finally broke that streak! Marked 10k and has a heart stamped inside the band with the word "gig" in the heart (I think). Weighs 1.4 grams, so that's $22.72 in scrap value. Not bad!
Next best find was a Sterling silver claddagh ring. Band is broken, but it has a nice jade stone. Also dug a junk box pendant and an ornate junk ring. Not worth anything, but still fun to find.
Finally, I dug two musket balls and a 1700's tombac button. This field sure has a wide range of stuff to find!
Here's a lot of pics!
