Found (First) Gold AND Silver today

[BixbyTreasure]

Today we went back to the closed church in small town OK (3rd time). I am posting pics of all three trips. The first time we went, a few months ago, we found a 1902 V nickel.Today's finds are the 10k gold ring and the 1952 dime. I believe we had 1 wheatie today and of course my collection of pulltabs continues to grow. The total is as follows. Its funny, yesterday a guy told us we should check the church up the street because people still go there and he has a friend that metal detects who does pretty well. I thanked him while telling myself its hunted out and I don't really want clad, BUUUTTTT went and checked it out for awhile today anyway. The only thing I really found there was the silver dime. A part of me went "nana nana na". It feels double good to find something good in a "hunted out" area. Got bored with cans and went a block up to MY area. Spent a little time buying neighborhood kids push up pops and letting them play with the detector. Once they left...GOLD and needles. Tomorrow, I think we are off to the lake to see what people may have lost. Thanks for looking and reading.

10K Gold Initial (S) Ring. In the hole with this was a hypodermic, thank goodness it was capped.

Oh and I almost forgot the AWESOME tag that was stamped "Dispose of properly" partially ripped.

And all the can slaw removed from the area.

Thanx to all of you, I have been metal detecting for about 4 years off and on. Just got the Ace 250 a few months ago and was starting to wonder if it had something against "precious" metals. LOL

Great hunt, nothing like silver and gold, congrats on those finds.The 250's a great machine, I had one for a while and in alot of areas you can turn up the sensativity up to get more depth
and if it acts funny, falesing turn it down till it stops.Have fun with it I did.

"10K Gold Initial (S) Ring. In the hole with this was a hypodermic, thank goodness it was capped."

If you still have it take the hypodermic to a fire station, ambulance service, most Doctor's Offices or Hospital...they have sharps boxes just for hypodermic needles.
