took off on a hunt to a park that used to be a school, not much in the way of old coins, we were thinking they removed alot of the top layers of soil and too all our loot.

Got approached by animal control. she wants to go also and find stuff lol!


I managed to find a couple bucks in change, all spendable this time. no rotted pennies whatsoever.

we went to the older area of the park to use the retroom and hit the little play area, i guess some young lady broke up with her boyfriend becasue i found a mangle inexpensive gold wire ring. Kinda cool finding gold, even if its small lol!

Jsmith member here found ALOT more coins than i did, he hit the basketball area and found the motherlode of pocket change and other little items.

wile im not sure what grade of gold it is or even if its gold and not gold plated, but it looks like hammered and rolled (lines on it) and then soldered into a ring. Either way, its gold color and i found it lol!

Also found some cheapo fake costume jewlery at the masons lodge, thought for sure we would be onto some ancient coinage there but all the good areas that would have held our beloved old coins was under asphalt.



Next time after some heavy recon & studying of the area (talking to the preservation society & historical society too) JSmith & I mayhaps might just get to do some searching on private land and have the finds put in the Kent Valley Museum.

Animal control has friends on the inside lol!

Looks like gold to me Phish
Might try looking at it under a loupe to see if it has any numbers on the inside of the band.

i had my loupe with me, nothing on the inside. i think its gold wire that was turrned into a ring, inside the solder joint where its cracked looks yellow also so i am lead to believe its real and not plated. will see after work tomorrow in an acid test.
