Some of you may have seen my post saying my silver drought was over when I scored a smooth Merc and a nice 52 Rosie. I also found 10 wheats at that site. I knew there had to be more, so after work today I ran down there I only had a half hour to hunt as I had to go meet nascar driver Brad Keselowski at a nearby casino for a picture and autograph! I had only been there 5 minutes and pulled another wheat cent! I was cutting it close on time and told myself one more diggable signal and I'm sure glad I did! I got one of those to good to be true 50c $1 signals on the ace 350 but cut the plug and was left with a pretty good sized coin ball in my hand when I broke it open I was in awe! This is what I saw
I didn't want to leave I knew I was in a good area at that point for sure! I returned home from the casino around 8pm to find my girlfriend quite upset that I dug a silver half without her! Lol so we ran down to the park knowing we didn't have to long but it was a great couple hours! We ended up digging 3 mercs! 8 more wheat cents and a sterling and ruby? Ring! It's missing a stone but we love it! The makers mark indicates it was made by the Uncas company.
Other finds included some clad a holed 1949 Jefferson, a pretty neat elephant pin, a suspender clip I believe? with a patent date of July 18 1807 and a Ponds extract lipstick tube. Absolutely one of the very best times I have had metal detecting! I'll be back to this place as I'm sure there is more to uncover!!! Happy hunting everyone!
