Didn't shoot snake eyes. . .

Snuck out this morning before sunrise, and headed to the High School I graduated from. The very first thing I hit was this ring. It is Junk but cool non-the-less. Looking at my finds you can see that I was digging every signal trying to find cool things like metals, rings, coins, whatever I could find. And boy did I find a lot of different things. Most of the scrap inculding the yoohoo top was found there. Just as I started finding coins a groundskeeper came by and ran me off so I moved to a local park and its tot lot.

I also had a first today: I broke the 50 coin barrier!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D And I found a 1950 wheat.

Strange that I found a superman today when I found a Superman emblem yesterday during my hunt. Among other items that I found starting in the bottom left:

parts of a cigarette lighter, small metal brad from clothing, a small gear, two fishing sinkers, plastic button with butterfly on it, old fingernail clippers, top of bell, part of window, lead balancing weight, end of fleuorescent tube, 53 coins!, ring, chain off keychain, lots of other stuff and a really old Key.

The key is really cool and only my second.

The Tommy Gun is die cast I think, not sure, it is not magnetic.

Thanks for looking. Today was GREAT!!!

I broke a rule of mine today and actually threw a few items out. I have a big bucket that I am throwing scrap metal in now, but the yoohoo top, the nails and a few other items I tossed in the trash! That is a big deal for me! Anyway thanks, today was probably the most fun I have had detecting in a long time just because for three and a half hours I had NO time that I wasn't swinging and digging, I mean if I wasn't swinging I was digging signals. The most I have dug EVER since getting a detector and it was a blast. It got to where I didn't care what I was digging, just popping metal out of the ground was a blast. I cannot explain it, I just got in a grove and it was surreal. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nice finds...Bet you are worn out. That key reminds me of the key that fit the 64 Malibu SS that I wrapped around 2 trees back in 1979 while playing in the snow. I found out it's not best to do it at 45 mph, lol
