  1. Ugly mass of jewelry yields GOLD AND SILVER!!!

    Hello folks! My Grama had a bunch of old ugly jewelry that she wanted to get rid of. I gladly excepted it! I went through it all and found two treasures, a 10k broken chain (weighs less then a gram, worth around 16 bucks), and a silver earring. It was very interesting and fun to go through it...
  2. Killer weekend

    I could tell you a big drawn out story but in this case the pics tell most of the story. Saturday I found this Olan Mills pendent, it's not stamped other than the TM name, so I'm guessing it's plated. There's still a bit of glue from where I believe it would have had a portrait. Today I...
  3. I almost skipped over it.

    Yesterday evening I managed to get out for a short hunt just before sunset. I was going to hunt around an old church then realized it was Wednesday, which means folks would be at the church. So I thought to myself: The only other thing folks around here seem to take seriously is sports, which...
  4. First gold of the year and its a pretty one !

    Evey once in a while you get a "Sign" some sort of event or happening that means that todays hunt will be extra special out of the blue ! For today that sign occurred while trying to find a signal, suddenly there was no signal response in the dig, I noticed there was a clump of dirt on the...
  5. Gold Rush in Wisconsin!

    The weather has been cold (temps in the 30's and low 40's) and windy (10-30 mph) the past few days here in Wisconsin, and I was a bit cold & discouraged after being skunked the time before (except for a little clad) but I changed up my strategy- I decided put in more hours swinging the stick...
  6. What are these 10k pins from?

    I acquired these pins. They are marked on the back 10k with 3 more letters but I cant make them all out. Anyone have any idea what they are from or represent, and if they have any value. Any info is much appreciated.
  7. another 10k gold ring! Along with more bling...

    Got some clad, a bit of bling and a bent/broken 10k ring today. It's nice to find gold but I kinda like straightening the rings out and wearing them just once... not gonna happen with this one hehe. :headbang:
  8. My first GOLD!!!!

    It's only 10k and the center stone, whatever it was, is gone, but there are a few of the little ones remaining. Woot!
  9. First Gold in 2012, 10k Ring!

    Finally Gold in 2012 So I went to this park I have been wanting to hunt for a while. Shortly after I started my hunt an older man with a dog walked up and said "Do any good with that?" I replied I do OK. Then he said "last weekend there was about 20 of you guys hunting this park":BangHead...
  10. My First Gold Find (That Almost Wasnt)!!

    My First Gold Find (That Almost Wasn't)!! About two weeks ago I found my first gold after 2.5 years of off and on MDing. I didn't realize it was gold because it broke several times while I was trying to get it out of the hole and I assumed it was just some cheap jewelry. Well, yesterday I...
