Etrac Rings True

[Sheldius]

This is the result of my last two outings to a local park. I hadn't been there in more than a year.

First day I was just getting back into the swing of things. Thought I might try for 100 coins. From before I knew there was to much can shards for nickel searches. After an hour I took a break and called my wife.

"I don't think I'll make 100. I've got 20 or so, mostly pennies." She, ever the keen business mind said, "How about get to 50 total quarters, nickels, and dimes?"

Smart woman! After another 1.5 hours and I was pushed off the field by the pick up soccer games. I had 70 coins total for $5.55. A number of 4+ coins. Got 9 Q, 29D, 2 N, 30 P.

This weekend I spent 1 hour at the tot lot while wife and baby girl tested out the new stroller. I knew it was pretty clean so this time I focused on nickels. Happily I found my first wedding ring. Marked 14 Kt and weighs 5 grams. The other looks like brass or gold plated copper. 3 more nickels, and 4 pennies.

Left my number with the park office, but don't think it will be reported lost. Was 3" down in the bark.

Pictures taken with phone camera.

Good job!

Very nice finds. Sounds like the etrac is producing. Show us a closeup of the ring. I use a cheap magnifying glass in front of camera and it does a good job.

Thanks for the comments all. I don't always look for the nickel signals. Paid off this time, since I only have to dig 6 pieces of foil.
