Hi all..hunted a beach/park that was est. in the mid 1800's. after detecting a few hours ...another fellow detector person showed up. He came up to me and proceeded to tell me how terrible my ML safari is. said he had one and they are junk. Now this is an older gentleman..say 65-70yrs. After he was done spewing his garbage...I let him know that the small beach that we were on(maybe 150' long)......I told him that a few wks ago..I had a pretty good day with the safari with 9 rings to include 3 or 4 gold. i don't think he like me being in his "territory". I don't get it.....Even after i go through an area...I know I have missed things and it really doesn't bother me to see other guys out there detecting. In fact i like to see other detecting.

Anyways....i didn't find much today...but here it is. Let me know if anyone can identify any of these items. Thanks

Nice finds, looks like the first one is a clip earring.. the other is a lipstick tube..I think the third one is a thimble.

the third one is 3 inches across and the little steeple thing is 2/4" high..so it cant be a thimble..i dont think?

Well, sure that Safari is junk. To him. He was apparently so inept with it he had to dumb down.
The Tangee item is definitely a make-up container. Could be a rouge or lipstick.
