We are wet as can be from rains but dry in the precious metals around my house. Drove out to see about detecting an old farm house about 20 miles from me. Cjon and I had stopped there our last permission seeking hunt and no one answered. Today a lady was in the yard but said she only rented. Bummer! Drove on out in the country down a couple unfamiliar roads, but didn't feel the need to stop anywhere. On the way home, I decided to stop at a house in a town that appeared to be renovated. The owner was there and said he just wanted to see anything I found. Small yard and only spent 45-60 minutes there. Found this neat little pin that showed gold through the dirt!

Only things found were a 1983 Canadian cent and 30 something clad US cents besides the pin. I showed the owner everything. He showed interest in the pin but declined to take it. Once I got home and cleaned it up, it was apparent that it is gold plated, darn it! Not sure of the age, but it was very pretty in it's day.

Very nice find OD. Congrats.

I am just so pleased to see that this thread was only partially hijacked... and the best part is that CJON seems to be the target, instead of poor little me!

I see that Scrappy invited you out. I would be so all over that invite. He is finding more silver than any other regular poster on this site, from what I can tell. He could lead you to that find that has eluded you.

Again, congrats, and best of luck to you!
Tom, you always look at things so positively. I thought maybe he just wanted someone to video his finds:dontknow:

Do we have to take Chris? Lol, j/k. Very generous of you!

Don't worry about Chris. Unless it's a glaringly obvious half or pistereen blasting his headphones off, he won't find much. Lol

You need to stop worrying about CT and get your butt out and buy Vino a HUGE Birthday gift. Especially since you robbed the cradle with that baby find of yours. CT Is too busy recruiting new NC members for the CSM.
