Went to one of the old parks I visit today and had some underwater fun. A good day to be in the water for sure. Some pretty old finds. A 10K 1928 class ring and a mans 10K ring with maybe a real emerald, maybe glass. Not sure because it is not scratched or chipped. Usually they are hammered if glass or fake.

Oddball find is a 1926 German 2 Reich Marks. Canadian dime 1919 which is sterling silver and a Canadian 1932 penny. Oldest coin was a 1910 wheat. A very nice shape 1926 SLQ also.

Two silver rings, the SLQ, 2 Washingtons, the German coin, 3 mercs 2 roseys and the Canadian dime and a personalized religious medallion were my silver finds. The only newer coin I found today was a 1963 penny.

Found some interesting trash but it is still in the truck.















Got my new camera today. Will play with it and take some better pictures now. Enjoy.

Great hunt. Have to love the mystery behind the German coin. Between wars. That one can keep you thinking for a while. Maybe an immigrant that got out between wars. Nice finds all around. Thank you for sharing.

Be careful wearing waders.
 

One serious treasure hunt and you found the treasure for sure - "CONGRATS" on the old coins - rings & medallions - thank you for sharing the pictures and story of your finds with all of us. I wish you many more fantastic finds while out dirt or water fishing.

LOL me clean rings??? Not in my vocabulary. Unless it is a special ring they all just go in my scrap silver or gold bins. Along with silver coins. I will clean the German coin though because I never found one before.

Dirt fishing? My E-trac is retired till the water gets too cold to dive in. I am a bit spoiled though and I admit it. This hunt was a good one but I wouldn't say great. When I can pull 6 gold out of a spot in one day which I have done very many times they get to be great.


Thanks for the comments. I am going to hit that old beach a lot this year. It never gets used anymore.

Back-of-the-boat is dead on. Be very careful wearing waders in a river detecting. As I posted in another of your threads, I would have invested in a wet suit. Water is VERY unforgiving of mistakes and NO amount of silver or gold is worth your life. I have been in the Huron and it is a nice slower river. Just be careful. Good luck
 

One great hunt Scuba!! Love that fresh water silver, and Old Gold.........Wow!! Can't wait till you get that underwater rover in....
 

Well done SD.

Amazing hunt - Congratulations! :occasion14:
 

Killer hunt, congratulations on the silver and jewelry! :occasion14:
 

Wow. In a park? Did you do the pond or something? Got me curious!

LOL not a pond. A bit bigger than that. Actually a LOT bigger. I will spill the details one day. Right now because of lurkers I am very hesitant to say. If you really would like to know send me a PM.

Just got back tonight. Will start a new thread. Rings and silver keep comming up. Got some other interesting targets also. Thanks all for the replies.
 

Great hunt. Silver, gold and old medals.
I've been killing the medals myself this year. I'm building quite a collection. But you know how it is; things come in waves.
In your case, they're literally under the actual waves.
Congrats on a great hunt....
 

Great assortment of finds!! Nice job! Congrats and HH
