Today's Schoolyard finds - still streaking

Got out this morning and hit three schoolyards very near to my house here.

It was kind of slim pickins compared to all my recent luck but I did manage to get a keeper and a bunch of trinket jewery, and a few coins. All in all, a nice day, great to be out there!

At the first school, I found a silver chain bracelet hallmarked Italy 925 and its broke, missing the connecting ring at the clasp.

I also got a surprize. When I got home I immediately took photos of all my finds , junk and goodies, straight out of the pouch uncleaned which I will post below, and at the first place I found two trinket junk rings. Well, when I cleaned it up inside this evening, one of the ring is indeed 925 hallmarked. It has a pretty stone but is a kids adjustable ring. I have never found an adjustable ring that is silver. Bonus!!

At the second and third schools, no keepers except one beading link that may be silver, or not? Lots of trinkets today and trash...lots of trash...lol.

I almost forgot...
at school 3 I found a fired, brass jacketed 44 cal bullet. Scary huh. In the woodchip area of the school. You just never know what you'll find I guess.
It's in the bottom right of the "Finds 2" photo.

Best of luck to you all!

Hey Boobydoo, that frog charm is "Smoochie" the frog from the Beanie Baby charms that were made about 5 years ago. I don't think you owe anyone on here stats like that! I'm sure it would bother me if someone didn't believe what I said I found,but I think the majority of people here on TNET can tell that you are an upstanding detectorist and it's not a bunch of bs! You obviously know where to look,put in a lot of time,and I think you are a lucky guy as well. I'm waiting on your next batch of finds. ;D Good luck and keep at it! ;)

Nice finds, Booby!

By-the-way, when my wife comes by the computer I have to be careful to not say: "I'm looking at Boobydoo's stuff."

Is it okay if I call you BD ?

Man, I can't keep up with you. You are finding this stuff so fast. And lots of good stuff. I was never a doubter. ;D When you detect with others from various places you learn a lot and see a lot. One thing I know - I am not speedy and efficient. Would never win any THing contests. ::) Now you look like a metal detecting madman! ;D ;D :D

Bob

Yep, a madman for sure Bob,
I can get away with being speedy in the woodchips only
with the machine I use and my technics.
All other places , slow and slower is always the way to go.

Thanks for the friendly reply!

Smiles!

Thanks for the info PW, yes, I see it now, you are correct.

Thanks for the visit and nice comment.
