14K Gold Ring, 64 Rosse, 45 Big S War Nickel, 15 Wheats, Marbles, Tokens, etc.

I hit our local spot on Saturday and Sunday and hunting wasn’t too great. That’s because the rain kept coming and going on both days. I was rained out early on Sunday after arriving around 1:00 PM; it didn’t last before I had to leave. I

I did manage a 14k Gold Ring, a 64 Roosevelt Dime, a Big S 1945 Silver War Nickel too. I also found 15 wheats with the oldest being minted in 1928, and a few cool marbles as well. The other mentionable finds are a small spoon is marked SIAM with some kind of profit on the handle, a Locker Disneyland Token, a City of Portstmouth Free Parking Token, a Knott’s Berry Farm Good Luck Token with crossed pistols, a junk ring, and some other stuff.

HH and Gold Luck to all.

You had a great day.....by which I mean you went out and dug silver, gold, and old. Plus you got good variety. I love those kinda days.

Congrats on your finds, Anthony. I know exactly from those pics where you went. I'd say you did well considering the terrible weather we had here over the weekend. I didn't make it out. Old coins, some silver, some interesting relics, marbles, tokens, and a gold ring. Everything but the kitchen sink. I found one of those Knott's Berry Farm tokens at a park in Fullerton last year.

Hi CAPTN SE. Yeap, you know exactly the place . The place is still active and undergoing an ever changing landscape, even what I call big silver is still coming out. On Saturday MineLab Marty found a Silver quarter, and dimes are always coming out.

When I compare my find with others, I notice that they find the same stuff that I do besides gold, nickels and foil for the most part. That seems to be the trend from what I have seen in this area. One thing I have learned is not to dig all foil signals. I do this by listening to the subtle differences of a foil target's density and shape. Then I determine if it might be a good target or not, that’s how I get everything but the kitchen sink . Thanks Captn SE. Hope to see you back out there.

Terrific pictures, what do you take the pics with? I have pics of my finds but they are on my phone and i cant figure out how to get them to go to my e-mail address!!

Wonderfull!

Hi Windbreaker. I use the 5.2 mp HP M425 Photosmart Digital Camera in MACRO Mode. To take close-up photos you'll need a camera that has a Macro Mode function. Thanks for asking and when you get a camera that a has Macro Mode function I’ll be glad to go into detail on how I get the photos to come out like that. Thanks for asking.

Ant,
Congrats on the gold ring! You're making me want to give up on the relic hunting for a bit and go back to hitting some parks. With gold prices as they are, it's a smart move.
That Knott's Berry Farm token is pretty cool.
I used to live in Fullerton back in the late 70's. I worked at my uncles Mobil station after high school. I remember drooling over a brand new gold edition 78 Trans Am at the dealership across the street. I was driving a 73' Formula Firebird then. Great times.
Congrats,
MM

Thanks MM. So you’re one of those fast guys.

Looks like you had a great weekend Ant! I couldn't get out there last weekend and am flying to Florida on a quick business trip next Sunday. Maybe I'll see you out there Saturday if I can sneak away for few hours. Leave some for me!

We are both in luck, because it’s too wet to hunt right now, and I’m working OT on Friday and Saturday. Be safe and good luck on the trip, I hope you find Gold and Silver when you hit the spot .
