On The Way Back To The Truck.

[Subterranean]

After four hours of pounding an older softball complex and finding lots of clad only, I ambled back toward the truck, swinging wide with my tired arm... Got a solid, repeatable 80 chirp in a grassy area. I thought I would dig another clad dime because, hey, they add up! There in the plug was a nice surprise. It was an intricate, sterling heart-shaped pendant. It is 1 1/4 inches tall, filigreed, with gold plating in places, and has red stones as the flower pedals. It is hallmarked on the back, ".925" and "D L in an oval." A sight for sore eyes. My second and last piece of precious metal jewelry for the month. Thanks for looking and happy hunting to all of my TNet friends. Sub

Well done ! It's easy to give up when that arm is killing you on the way to the truck, but you hung tough and it paid off !

Nice looking find Sub. Good thing you didnt get sloppy with your tired arm. Your swing could have been different, and you may have missed that charm all together.

Nice find. Don't show the wife. Good luck.

Thank you for the kind words, my friends. Uglymailman, too late, Mrs. Sub is already plotting on this piece. Note to fellow ATPro jockeys, the 80 VDI was strong and repeatable. After pulling the pendant out of the hole, I thought it should have been a higher number based on the size and weight of the silver. But, when I first saw the pendant in the hole, it was standing on edge. Chalk another one up for Julio ( my ATPro!) Cheers, Sub
