Well this is from the two days I was able to do this week. Actually I technically could (and want to) spend alot of time MDing (since I work from home) but I try to limit myself to 2-3 hours a day and since its been very rainy this week (IL) I haven't been out much since I got my Eagle Spectrum (yeah I know its old, but I'm assuming the stuff in the ground doesn't change). So I found alot of nails, shotgun casings and beer cans. But the highlights were:
* 2002 Quater (Whoopee)
* 1930-40 Colorado Retail Tax Token (2 bit)
* 1917 wheatie
* and on the surface my wife found a lost CZ diamond earing (2 carat with about 1/4 carat satellite) its not a real one unfortunatley (did the "dot" test). All this was in our backyard, see, our house we are renting is an old gas station from the 1940's that was converted into a home. I was hoping I could find more stuff, but there is SSOOOOO much metal in the yard (7-9 inches deep) it make it hard to detect, not to mention all the 4 inch diameter rusted washers I have found as well.
Hope to get out more tomorrow, but deadlines are looming fast.
