- Metal Detecting
Hit up the same park I hunted last week and spent an afternoon at a school further into town. The school was built in 1928.
I figure I'm either getting better at reading the signals my tracker II is giving out or I'm just getting luckier at this game, because I keep finding more and more stuff. I didn't locate any silver coins this week, but I keep reading that if I find wheats, I'm bound to find silver! I gotta get back out to the old school as soon as my schedule permits, now that classes are over I shouldn't have to wait until the afternoon to get hunting!
Alright! On to the spoils!!
I was able to locate .925 on both the interior of the charm and on the clasp of the chain - both dug within inches of one another:
Damaged Indian:
Ring marked "Sterling ESPO" ends up its a company the made costume jewelry starting in '51:
Another ring marked .925 - missing the stone, though!!
Silver pin?? Cant find markings on it anywhere!!
Old copper button:
9 Wheats in total, oldest date is 1928, I actually found 4 in the same hole!!
Broken Belt Buckle marked "1974" on the back - Man, I would've liked to have found this baby intact!
Thanks for looking everyone!! I will certainly upload again next week as my quest for treasure hunting glory continues! I plan on getting something like an Ace 350 in the next month or so. I want to make sure I get plenty of hunting in this summer and fall because winter is really gonna kick us out of the hobby up there in the North East. >.<
