I have been reading your posts for over a year now, and though I have made comments on some of your great finds I have been reluctant to post any of my own as most of my finds haven't been anything all that great.
My wife and I have been hunting a old golf course that is now closed and is presently owned by the city. Over the past year we have found many coins, silver and copper but nothing super great. Today we were out there hunting and I got a FE 02 CO 47-50 on my E-Trac. I thought I had a silver half, but got a surprise when I brought it to the surface. It turned out to be a Sterling Silver Box. I put it in my pouch and continued hunting, when we quit for the day and was setting in the car I opened that box and got another pleasent surprise. It turns out it was a holder for a very small child's Rosary which was also Sterling Silver. I have never found anything like this before and thought I would share it with you. Hope you enjoy. Rick
