Got out twice last week, Saturday AM being the second. Two different areas around town (Baltimore) and two sterling rings!
On my way to a recent hunt, I stopped to get gas on the way and there lying by the pump was a 14K earring, a little damaged.
All four jewelry items are pictured here; the other earring is sterling.
Both hunts produced some older items:
First hunt (5/24/17): colonial era spoon bowl, street car token, army air wings pin, silvered button, and .38 cal wadcutter.
Second hunt (5/27/17): workers token stating " TIN MILL 5 Ct. COUPON"; this likely came from a worker at the tinning operations at Bethlehem Steel at Sparrows Point and was dug at a school in Dundalk.
Some really satisfying finds located with the Fisher F75. Lesson to me: dig those quarter signals, even if shallow; that's what the rings sounded like and rang up as.
