I'm gonna have to start carrying heart meds!

If I keep uncovering things that look like this:

What would you think is you saw this looking up from
a hole?

Actually, I really don't have a problem. I already have an idea
just what the odds are against finding a gold coin. So, I wouldn't
believe it was one until I'd gotten it checked out by at least three sources. LOL

Still, does quicken the heart a bit. ;)

Anyway, I just had to take advantage of the temporary reprieve from ole man winter.

Didn't do too terrible, even if I do say so my own self. :)

The lil lead ball was a welcome surprise in this schoolyard. :)
Even the fairly modern buttons are speaking of an age that is before
this yard. :icon_scratch:

Gold colored coins! There oughta be a law I tell ya!!
To add insult to injury, who makes coins of the realm that are MAGNETIC!!! :dontknow:
Pretty Looney!!!

Even caught a ring! Honestly, I lost count this year but with all the bling
this year, I'm sure it's somewhere above 200. Too bad they couldn't all be gold. :dontknow:

At least Fishy and Blingie's been kept happy. LOL

Thanks for stopping by!

Could've been worse. You might of thought you got a little gold and big silver if you dug this...

Great thing about Minelabs is you can disc the suckers out.:laughing7:

Now there's these ones that should be banned, heart did a jump when it was in the hole.The United States Mint · About The Mint

The :dontknow: find looks like part of a toy cannon that's been blown apart.

A silvery circle and Blingie & friend are happy! Nice finds!
My first thought would be YEAH! My second thought would be - wait a minute, I'm not that lucky.
Things that are not gold should not be allowed to be that color!
Just like when I find a nip cap, it's round, gold color, detector says it's a ring, heart is pumping faster, then....TA....daaaaaa, ah dang it!

I see you got one of the black paper clips too.
At lest with Canadian money you can actually dirt fish with a magnet!

It is still the thrill of the hunt that keeps us going.....that and the threat of winter, dig I'll you can't!

Is the ring stainless? Looks like a big haul. If you get much more, you may need a wheel barrow, as well as the nitro pills!

Can't think of a thing that sums it all up better:

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leafs a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

-Robert Frost
