Hi folks!
I spent about 3 hours at my favorite park yesterday with my nox 800. Was not disappointed finding these finds. Those are early 20th century brass bar brooch and this awesome sterling Celtic crucifix( first half of 20th century) that I found in pieces.

Very nice! That's a real sweet recovery.
It's great that it was all there and can be put back together.
Get em while you still can as the last page of the calendar is almost upon us now.

Hey, my Friend! Yes, that was a really great find for me. I love finding crosses . I have a nice collection of crucifixes found. Have one made from pure gold. But my favorite one is a very old one one and made of copper, found at the same park. This one is my first celtic style crucifix that I found which makes me happy. Thank you so much!!!

Hey, Jeff! I hear you. Religious finds are very special for me as well. Have a decent collection of them now with some very unique finds. By the way I have almost same pendant that one in your avatar. The difference is that my find is the profile image of Jesus. Thanks a lot!

Point of interest, I found that crucifixation medal on Good Friday, 2004. Meant so much to me that I had it tattooed on my arm and never take if off my neck.

Hey , Jeff! Look at my avatar picture. It is also the religious gold medallion cause it has St. Christopher on the other side. The meaning of the medallion is that St. Christopher is wishing luck to those who are on the roads in the automobiles. It is one of my best finds. Cheers!!!
