1805 US half cent,(number 2 for the year!)big silver,Saturday in the snow finds

[junkhunter]

I had hoped the stinking white stuff would be gone when i got to my current spot.No such luck.Anywhere from a foot to a few inches depending where i dug.But ground was not frozen.For most of the day i dug clad,beer cans,and 3 pouches of junk.But then i got a 1805 us 1/2 cent with stems.Not very nice looking but these in any condition are a cool find.Also got a 1917 wheat cent.My other good find was a huge 925 sterling knuckle ring.Somebody lost their bling bling.My detector is completely covered in mud.And cloths might dry out by spring.But i had fun.And got my 2nd half cent for year and 3rd USA one ever.Also dug up base of a pewter or lead lamp.Dang thing was over a foot down.

That is one crazy ring, never seen anything like it. Congrats on the half cent. As soon as the snow is gone, I hope to get out with you.......................Rich
