Went to the Rev Fort this morning the humidity is unbearable to where even my phone went disabled from the heat and this is at 6 in the morning. I got a 1942 P War Nickel, 2 Wheats, a old Coca-Cola Bottle from New Orleans and a brass ring. Now the brass ring was about 5” down and was underneath some brinks from the Fort so I’m going with a Confederate Soldiers ring lol
Thanks for looking can’t wait till the winter. IMG_3203.jpg IMG_3205.jpg IMG_3206.jpg IMG_0012.jpg IMG_0012.jpg IMG_0012.jpg

Looks like Mr. Jefferson even had some heat stroke. I think it is ok to blame the heat for a bad days outing, heck I have been having lots of them here in sunny fla. But I think you did alright:thumbsup:

You are tough as nails down there grinding it out in the summer my man. I tap out after a few hours up here if it’s more than 75 or 80 [emoji23]. Nicely done!

Thanks washingtonian it’s a mental war after 30 mins. Everything in your body and mind in saying get back in your air conditioned truck and go home and go back to sleep. Lol

Truth, where would the metal detecting community be without a guy like you with your drive, tenacity, and stubborn endurance to spur us on? Lol I hope we don't hear about you having a heat stroke out there!

Congratulations on the finds, you deserve all you get. Your soil sure is unkind to metal.

ecmo the soil can be brutal. I’m actually going to rest today my shoulders are sore from digging in that brick. Gonna can some work done to pay the bills, because lord knows detecting doesn’t, and be back Monday. Might try water hunting again. Living my best life.

Appreciate the compliment [emoji1317]

I've got four or five rings like that one, I always saw them as being "economical" rings of the time for many. Mojo is so overrated these days, it comes and goes in streaks. Been fighting a sinus infection and the heat actually feels pretty good for a little while and then the deliriousness takes over and I come back inside. Kudos to you for getting out there and you are still finding some great stuff.
