Quick Hunt in the Slush - Silver and Token

PGHDigger · Jan 15, 2016

Got out for a short hunt today for a couple of hours before work today, ground is actually thawed at the moment. Dug a lot of trash and a few clads, couple UMO's... Then got a solid nickel hit, turned out to be a sterling silver Boy Scout ring that says "Be Prepared"... Dug a couple of late 30's wheats... Ended the hunt with a cool fare token. One side says Pittsburgh Railways with the date 1922... The other side says good for one fare...

Tomorrow is supposed to be in the mid 30s and the ground is definitely thawed... Plan on hunting sun up to sun down... I may not be able to sleep tonight...

Congrats on the great finds! Is the Boy Scout ring marked as silver? Don't hate me but .925 silver rings usually hit as dimes, quarters, or higher on most machines. Are you going to polish it up? Sub 8-)

It says "Sterling" on the inside of the band... I was surprised it shown as a nickel... My f2 was bouncing around a lot on this target... Nickel was just what I felt it was leaning towards...
