I had a "shell" of a day.. Silver, Wheats, V nickle, broach and more

Just got back from a long road trip....... 6500 miles worth. So you know what I had to do!! It was hot here in Ohio today. 86. 2 degree's shy of the record. I'll take it. And I did. I went back to the 1900's old farm land that I have did pretty good so far. I worked it hard with max sensitivity as the area is clean from modern trash. I like it that way. My first dig was a 1943 merc. It was near a plug I had dug before. My next dig was a V nickle. I love finding them when they are there. Kind of rusty looking but I'll take it. Found 4 old shot shell brass ends. , some kind of weird broach, a gas valve, a 1914 wheat and a cut up 1943. Found some kind of tag, and a piece of jewelery. Looks like gold but who knows???? This site has produced a bunch of old wheat's, 7 silver coins and some cool relics. I've about got it cleaned out. I need to find a new place. Thanks for looking at my humble finds :-[ Ron

I got out today and thats all I found 8 shotgun shells.

Me too. I have found a bunch but there are so many different types that were made. I thought about making a special case or something to display them

It was below average here one day and jumped to summer. I was over in Pittsburg, Pa. and it was 90. 87 here in Ohio. Almost a record. Now I have the heat back on in the house yesterday.......only 50's. WTH ??? Global warming comes and goes again ::)
