I have collected early U.S. license plated since 1981 and have been metal detecting since 1997 . I have always wanted to find a license plate just to say I had , well today was the day ! Well it's license plate related . I have been hunting a school the last two weekends and only finding clad . lots of clad . This morning I found some keepers . The first two good finds were a couple of wheats , 1941 and 1942 . I also found a 1948 Jefferson nickel . Then I found a cool 1955 Hong Kong coin . After all that I was in the middle of this old soccer field when I got a +74 at 8 inches . I could believe it , a 1948 California date tab from a 1947 license plate ! Finally something plate related ! I have posted a picture of the one from my collection so everyone could see what it looked like . Last good find was a tiny ring , #58 for the year . It looks gold but doesn't quite past the 10K test , maybe 8k ? Total clad was $10.09 .
