Recent hunts, Silver & Gold
Got out to a couple of older spots won Wednesday, and although the old coins were stingy, I still managed to find some silver.
First up is a Victorian sterling silver ring. It was black in the center so I hit it with a little cleaner, and it appears that there may have been a stone or such there at one time:
In what effectively amounts to a ghost town, I found this sterling silver spoon:
Also found a few obligatory wheatbacks, both 1944-S:
With gold hovering around $1100-$1200 lately, I decided there's no shame in hitting a few tot-lots in search of gold, but aside from a few nitro finds and similar false alarms, I hadn't found anything spectacular yet. Yesterday lady luck mocked me yet again with a little gold plated junker earring:
Then I think lady luck was trying to tell me to go home (
hey dumb ass it's cold and raining, go home!!) when I got this 14K gold cross (marked on the bail) ![toothy2 :toothy2: :toothy2:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/toothy2.gif)
