I got out this morning to hunt an old school that dates from the 1940's , I had never hunted before . Well I was only able to hunt for 15 minutes and then every soccer player in the city showed up :BangHead: . I moved on to the next school . As I was leaving my hunting buddy Kevin call and wanted to meet up at the next school :thumbsup: . I got to the field first and found a few pieces of clad . Kevin showed up and I told him what I had found so far . As he put on his head phones I got a nice +12 at 4 inches . I couldn't believe what I saw in the bottom of the hole :o , GOLD ! But not any gold , it was a 14K gold pendent with the name KEVIN on it :laughing7: . What are the odds of that !!!! If Kevin had got to the field first he may have found himself :laughing7::laughing7::laughing7: . It weighs 4.75 grams and will go in my treasure chest :thumbsup: . The other items found were two junk rings , a 1944S wheat and two old Jefferson nickles in the same hole , 1947 and 1958D . Total clad for 3 hours was $6.54 .

Nice hunt Glen!
 

Great gold. I love pulling jewelry from the plug, even the junk because I always get that rush.
 

Never ceases to amaze me the amount of rings you find. One of these days you need to post a compilation pic of all the rings you've found. Congrats on the nice finds.
 

Once again way to go
 

Forget the treasure, that story is gold! Kevin arrived twice that day! Something like this cannot happen too often. :treasurechest::thumbsup:

Awesome gold piece. (my name also) Looks like you had plenty of targets :thumbsup:
 

Heck yea! Into the Treasure box! I sometimes laugh at myself when I look into my treasure box. I don't actually have anything in there I'm willing to give up, so what's the worth? PRICELESS... uh, because I'm not selling it.

:)

Nice find! And Ironic to boot. :)
