Was a nice day to hunt

[Old Dude]

Hi all. Cjon455 and I finally got out together again today. It was a nice cool 56 degrees F at 7:30 am...perfect day to go digging. Unfortunately we spent exactly 2 hours searching for a site before we finally found someone home that agreed to let us hunt. The first place was an old farmhouse owned by a lady from New York who was very agreeable to letting us. We spent a couple hours there without a lot to show and thanked her before we left. The next place was owned by a very spry 86 year old man who was very interesting to talk to. He would go from Chris to myself and back again as he thought of a new bit of info. His grandfather was one of the many to witness and be involved in the horror of Gettysburg. I found out he and I had both been stationed at Keesler AFB, he for basic training and I for technical training. This place provided a bit more coins for Chris and myself as well as the absolute ugliest find I have ever seen found by a detector, lol. Chris made the find so he can let you in on it. Thanks for looking.

You guys being able to hunt together is awesome! I solo hunt a LOT and I'm good with it but it's always fun to share the finds with someone. Your boy wins the UGLY find of the day. Don't try giving that one to the lady :-)

Congrats.

I love the merc. But let that blue stone turn out to be a sapphire and that ring is going to look a whole lot prettier then it does now.

Chris said after he showed it to me " I know what the wife is getting for Christmas now!" Lol!

Dave,
Great to see you two clowns back at it again. When you said:
"the absolute ugliest find I have ever seen found by a detector, lol. Chris made the find so he can let you in on it."
I thought for sure he had dug up a mirror. LOL
Congrats on gaining the permissions, and the nice finds.

But who's face was in the mirror? Cause see that can go either way, I dig it up and show it to dave, he looks in it and the rest is history lol or I look at it with my ugly mug. .........specifics specifics
