Double Silver Day at Lake Tahoe

[Threshold]

Been a while since I have metal detected, but usually on my vacations is when I do the most. Took the Tesoro Tiger Shark out to Pope Beach in Lake Tahoe, CA. Pretty clean beach and I found my first 35% silver war nickel, a 1945-S, and a .925 silver ring. Other notable finds were my first half dollar, a 1990 JFK, and a US NAVY SIGNAL HAND FIRED MK80 MOD 2 which seems to be some kind of survival pen-type flare. The pictures shown are my finds up to 8.4.2015, I haven't been out much this year. Top left is all trash, below is clad, pop tops to donate, and notable finds, and right is a close up on the .925 silver ring.

Nice pile of finds. Silver always turns any hunt into a great hunt.

Congrats.

Nice silver ring and war nickel! Congrats! That key just below the ring looks different.
I see I'm not the only one getting tent stakes.

Detecting is my sanity saver, I usually get out once a week, I wish I could MD more.

It's a good thing to save up your trash and take pics of it, you never know when it may come in handy to show people you are providing a public service as you pursue your hobby. It has benefits.

They ought to put you on the pay role for cleaning up the site. You did dig quite a lot of targets. Sweet silver ring, and who doesn't like to dig a war nickle, Oh I know who.... I believe he is known as OD
