What a Beautiful Smile You Have!!

[ScubaDetector]

Got out for two dives today. Lots of fun. Two class rings. One from 1929 the other from 1939. And of course another gold bridge. This one a lot bigger than the last. 18.14 grams of gold total, bridge was 8.83 grams. I have only found three bridges since detecting and two of them were this year.

As for silver a 1912 Canadian and a Washington, two mercs and a rosey, a war nickel, silver ring and small religious medal. Two buffalo's a 36 and a 37, 22 wheats. Bottom row is 20's top row of one is 50's.

The Cracker Jack police badge was a surprise. It is a little larger than a half and probably from the 1920's. Two brass rings and a few other trinkets. It was a good day to play.

Very nicely done.
You saved some sweet silver and a really nice amount of gold. What is the normal Gold Karat on the mouthpieces?
Congratulations

Normal? Absolutely no clue. The first one I ever found was 22K. I need to get these two tested. Just haven't yet.

Now that's some gold you can really sink your teeth into......wait, naa that would probably be pretty gross. Gz on the gold though no matter what shape it is!

Very nice ( and unusual ) finds.

Very sweet finds again sir.

Those buffalo nickels are just pristine... the only ones that I have ever seen/dug were rusty from the dirt.

Best of luck to you!

I have to admit myself, I like finding buffalo's and V's in the water a lot better than on land. I also love the land silver a lot better than the water silver. The best part about the silver is it is worth melt value no matter if black or shiny. I am hoping never to find a key date silver in the water though.

Thanks for all the replies. Can't wait to get back and see what else the weeds will let me have!

Strong dates on the buff's. Nice.
Gold is gold ,despite the form.
Those small buckles you keep recovering look familiar but not placed....
From rubber goggle or facemask straps,or maybe swim caps/hats. Those caps are not as popular anymore....

Congrats on some great finds as usual. Check that 37 buffalo could be D 3 legged

 

[Metal Magnet]

Very cool, I have a guy at my lake he's about late 40's year old, he keeps telling me about when he was a kid a guy lost his "gold teeth" The story goes that 20 X 20 ft area this guy lost his bridge and had all the kids diving in waist deep water looking for this bridge. I have scoured this area plus over and over only to think it has sunk deeper in the sand. I have been wanting to buy a (what would you call it) sluice box and "mine" the entire area where I have been searching. The only thing stopping me is I know it would get me kicked out of the lake! lol I know for a fact there is more treasure deeper in that bottom, lol
