Woke up this morning to a few more inches of snow. Did my errands and got ready to go detecting. I bundled up extra today as it was -6C/21F with a thick overcast and snowing, what a great day for the beach! Checked this drained lake out a few days ago and saw some of the swim area is finally exposed, had checked it 4 times over the past few months and it still had 6? of water in it last check. There was really just a good hour of detecting here but I made it last almost two hours, LOL, grid the area then crisscrossed back over it. The top 1? was frozen but I was able to get the shovel into the sand. Here?s the drained lake.

This is all the junk, not bad for a lake bed.

About 13 crusty Deutsch Mark coins, the inner steel core rusts away leaving the foil, they are now in the recycling bin.

37 Euro cents and a corroded aluminum religious pendant.

And here is the finest of today?s hunt, 3 rings, the left ring is 925 silver and the right two are bubblegum machine jewelry. Had a great time out there! HH and thanks for looking, Mike
