MY VERY FIRST STERLING SILVER SPOON RING
Yesterday, I got back to a park that I have hunted numerous times in the past. The area I picked to hunt is an area I have searched before but never really gridded. I was determined to focus on this area with the DEUS.
I know that a VDI number of 97 - 98 will usually be iron, including deep rusted out steel bottle caps. I don't usually investigate a 98 - 99 signal.
I tried something a little different yesterday and it paid of. The first payoff came in the form of a 1936s Mercury Dime. (97 - 98 and deep)
The second deep 97 - 98 signal that really paid off during the hunt, was my very first Sterling Silver Spoon Ring.
I straightened it out and gave it a baking soda paste rub. Any help in identifying the character on the ring would be appreciated. I think it was a child's spoon.
