First River Hunt Produces First Gold Ring

[462]

Decided to give water detecting a try at a nearby river. First I had to get to the spot I wanted to detect, which required a 3.5 mile upstream paddle in my kayak. Well it paid off with a 14k white gold band. I also found a James Monroe token, a very worn (.02 thick)1941 wheat cent, a small copper pendant and three .94 diameter unidentifiable disks. One is all copper the next is copper with what looks like a pewter or lead center and the last looks like it might be pewter. If anyone has an idea what they might be let me know.
