Humbling hunt today w/vino

[cjon455]

Got out to a hunt today with vino to one of his spots, the weather was miserable rain, and for me the finds weren't anything spectacular, He killed it yet again,well let him tell that story, but for me The goods just never made it under my coil.

Got a smashed up Reins guide, a small spill of 3 wheats, a arcade token, 2 buckles, a pewter button, and a button that says "god helps those who help themselves" its a nice 2 piece with the shank still attached.

We had lunch at some pizza place and when leaving I happened to look down by my car and snagged this smashed up sterling cufflink marked 925, eyes always down lol didn't need a detector for that!

By all means im not complaining, I say humbled because I kept my expectations low as not to be disappointed and am super grateful for vino inviting me down, just wouldn't have minded snagging an indian or two, but hey that's how this hobby goes, Happy for vino and his finds today, thanks for looking and HH!!

Yeah,I guess it's all how you look at it. To some a 1945 silver Washington is a stellar find, to others it has to be a 1700's coin. That button is a very cool find, so is the 925 cufflink. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

As long as we're still having fun, it really shouldn't matter what we find. I believe if you go out expecting to knock it out of the park, you're going to burn out in the hobby. You'll get so disappointed, you'll probably quit long before you would otherwise. I have accepted my mediocre hunts so if I actually do find something good, it's like Christmas at 5 years old, lol.
