Newer park has some older items in it..

[black651]

I tried what looked like a pretty new park (1960's-70's) and was pleasantly surprised to find some rings - (7 so far, including one small gold one from this same park and over 20 found over the last couple months!) - but yesterday I searched another section and started bringing up some items that date to the 1930's. (Makeup compact and possibly the pocket watch) Starting to find some more interesting things lately. The best part about the last couple days was that my daughter went out with me and we both had a great time! She found several coins and was quite happy to be out with me - I couldn't have asked for a better couple days! We even found a small ring when we were there yesterday.

The pocket watch is in sad shape but I could read one small area on the back (missing it's back cover): "21 JEWELS". The small pin or brooch popped up after that one and then the "Princess Pat" rouge - still had the makeup inside. Then a buckle of some kind - (horse tackle?) - followed by a neat token. Lot's of large iron pieces in this area and I managed to dig up several old tool pieces. My younger brother is going to be coming out with me on Monday evening to search with his detector and it should be a real good time!

Thanks again for looking at my beginner's finds!

Wow, great finds, and what a great day. I haven't found that many rings all together in my hunts.
