Changed gears today !! Yes I did go out and hunt !! I am an addict right now!!~ It was a nice day ! 80,s headed to the lake ! This now public beach was a hunting and fishing lodge back in the late 1800's alot of junk !! I have learned 2 ignore the high junk including clad and wait for deep signals ! Found 1 great little pocket spill . I covered alot of ground before I found this!! First a green crusted indian , then another , I wasn't going any where !! spent the next hour in a 6 foot radius and dug every little chirp!! I ended up with 6 indians none of which I can as yet get a date from!! I was in some really acidic soil ! For u guys in the mid west this is what your indians will look like in 50 more years! ! 1 shield nickel , I assume no date no detail. Then came the 1903 barber dime at about 5 inches down. 1 foot away from this at about the same depth came this beautiful mens wedding band 3/8 of an inch wide yellow gold with a white gold rope design around THE center. Marked 3 times on the inside with The 14 K mark . Check it out !

Awesome! I have not seen a Indian Head cent come outta the ground yet! These (many) posts of them give me motivation.
 
Very nice silver and gold. Real nice Barber and great gold ring. Sorry about the Indians. We find a lot of them like that around here too. Keep on hunting.

Great finds Mainerelic. Makes ya sick to see some of the indians on this forum dont it. If only ours aged like theres. All of mine look just like yours. I'll take em anyway, know you will too. Great finds and keep searching.

love your song! what a fun time finding all those great finds in such a small area!
 
silver & gold is a great day in anyones books :thumbsup:
 
Awesome ring and dime. Looks like some electrolysis is in order on those others! After the crud is off the shield, some Radio Shack PCB etchant (aka Nic-A-Date) might bring up a date.
