My dad came out to detect and go to the river with my brother and I today! We started at the river and we weren't finding much, until my brother spyed two pieces of gold! It was two pieces of a money clip that's marked 14k!!! What are the chances!! And then we headed out to a park by my house that I found some old wheats and a war nickel at last week. I started the hunt by finding a 1919 wheat on my first hole! I ended up with that and 4 others! 1910, 1929 s, 1940 and 1946. My brother got two wheats 1915D and 1927. I also got a 1920 S mercury dime in pretty good shape! It is also my first mercury dime! The gold weighs almost exactly an ounce! I also got what looks to be an old gun part which might be a toy part, but to me it looks like its a real gun part. Man did we have a good day!
