Went out with Fort Bedford Detectors last night to a park with some history and scored my first wheat in 5years (I suck at this, I know...haha) and the last target of the night was a questionable, barely repeating signal that I only dug because it read 8" on my F5. I dug down about 7" and Keith had to verify with his pinpointer that the target was still deeper (I have the $15 Harbor Freight Chinese special and I'm coming to realize it needs upgraded badly). The target ended up being a 3-ringer that had been melted in a fire. My first ringer!

The plane was right next to the wheat and is die cast...not sure how old though. The wheat is a 53D by the way with a nice, big scratch from recovery.

Ya did good - nice finds TrpnBils. Thanks for sharing...
 

Nice finds! Is there any date on the bottom.. Some of the toys I have dug had dates and some didn't. Mostly Matchbox ones I found had the date and others didn't. Either way congrats on your first ringer!!! Those are my favorite
