Got out on Wednesday for a bit of detecting since it was such a nice day. Temps were comfy, but those pesky gnats just don't stay out of my face kinda' days, but I did make the best of it.
Decided to hit a local baseball diamond at one of the local parks, and I didn't cross the county line, so no need to worry about me pilfering your site Jersey Devil
One of the first plugs had a $1 quarter spill, so that was a nice one to get the coin tally to add up quickly. Pulled some dimes, a few pennies, and another quarter. Being that this part was an old dump I also dug a few of those strong signals being that this part of the park is where I found that Hagerdorn's Buffet Token last year.
No real goodies came out of there this time, but one did show up on my way back to the car.
I got a nice VDI of 80 and was showing Penny/Dime on the readout. Being that I hadn't dug anything for a while I thought what the heck. Pop the plug out of the ground and located the target in the plug. First impressions was that I had dug a pop-tab and I started cursing at myself for diggin such a target, then I remembered that pop-tabs hit around 19-20 VDI and gave it a tug to free it from the grass roots that had already entwined themselves in it. Turned out to be a 925 Silver ring with a Blue Topaz
First ring with the V3i
Thanks for looking and HH
