Diggin History #6 - 4/20/08 Silver Silver Silver & a Pistol - Lots of Big Pic's

Man today was a great day to hunt!!! Great food great friends and some great finds came out today, sadly my camera battery didn't care that I wasn't done taping. Goio found an awesome 1917 wheat penny. (He has a MineLab SE though) The religious pendant (its light, I think its aluminium, Goio was letting me use his SE so I can see what it is like, so that pendant was my first official find with a MineLab SE. I didn't get hardly any footage of anybody else, for that I am sorry guys. But my buddy Bomber made BBQ puled pork sandwiches!!!! They were out-of-this-world!!!!! We had a good mix of brands of detectors out in our group, we had 2 Garrett Ace 250's, MineLab SE, Fisher F75 (I think), 2 Wights MXT's, and a Bounty-Hunter LandStar (I think). I'm not sure if they are all correct with the models, but we definitely had a good variety of machines out today. There was a guy that wasn't in our group that found a gold plated religious medallion the size of a 50 cent piece!!!!!! That was NICE!!!! I also found an old perfume/cologne bottle, I have it, but I didn't include it in the video (its a nasty inside, I'm cleaning it up now)


Does anybody have any idea how old the toy pistol is??? Oh well, here is my finds:

Nice finds! Does your gun look like it may be able to chamber and fire six three piece cap cartridges? If so it might be an Nichols 5 1/2 " detective snubnose cap cartridge gun made in the 1950's. Cool find anyway! Great photos!
