Seventeen Degrees, Frozen Knees, Silver 'Neath the Coil, YES PLEASE!

Multiple layers of clothing and a dogged determination helped me through the day at one of my favorite parks. As long as the Lesche tool could cut the sod, I could dig! Found a nice sterling ring by a volleyball court inscribed, "Love Life, Be Brave, and .925 LA" Also found a 1968 Canadian five cent piece that was in an old clad US penny spill. The Canadian coin came out of the ground as shiny as a baboon's hiney. Does it have any silver in it, as it hits a 75 VDI on my ATPro? Also found an interesting hat pin that is in a foreign language, maybe Cryllic, that reads, "KOHHbINCIIOPT," or thereabouts. Rounded the hunt off with a silver plated earring and over $2.00 in frozen clad. Thanks for looking, hang in there diggers, Happy Hunting to all. Sub 8-)

Interesting badge. It says "Конный спорт"(Horse riding sport) and looks like Russian,Soviet era badge, but I couldn't find anything like that googling.
