Great finds!

That ring is too cool. Those stones could be replaced. Take it to a jeweler. See what they might charge.

What a fun location that must be.

Thanks guys!! There is 16 acres on this plot of land. There were three houses located here with only one still standing, the former boys home, which was built in the 20's. The other two are gone other than a few rocks from the supports and fireplaces.These are the old areas. I was suprised that it has never been detected before. Its getting harder and harder to find virgin ground like this these days! Cant' wait to get back out there! There has got to be more silver!!

Wow, great finds. The Swastika is really a Indian good luck charm from the 20's. I have found many items with that on them. Sounds like a neat site. I would hit it hard, go slow and dig all the signals. Good Luck.

By the way, what state do you live in that you can still hunt. The weather here in Ohio is cold, cold, cold and lots of snow. We had over 12 inches fall yesterday.

Im in South Carlina...just south of Charlotte N.C. I wondered about the swastika....Would that be the native american indians? If so that makes sense because this land is located about a mile from the catawba river on what was part of the original catawba indian tribes land.
Thanks for the info. and have fun in all the snow..lol!!

16 ACRES!!? That is hunting grounds for years. Amazing finds you have and I am sure there is much muchmore there. The ring is just too cool for words. Are those stones real?

Nice pile of loot - sounds like we'll be seeing a lot more from that site in the future!

You need a wheel barrow my friend with hauls like that. A really cool site it sounds like and it surely is producing a plentiful bounty.
