Good day today with 5 silver coins and a nice crotal bell. I was digging every thing.
The socks I put over the head set helped to keep my ears from sweating and I might need 2 socks now that its getting hotter out. bell 001.JPGbell 002.JPGbell 003.JPGbell 004.JPGbell 005.JPGbell 006.JPGbell 007.JPGbell 008.JPG :occasion14:

Sweet silver! Nice finds congrats!

That's a good idea with the socks, I was sweating with my headphones on today and it's not even summer yet.

I've been wearing the socks for over a week now and not sweating. I had to have my ears cleaned a few weeks ago . Wax build up and sweat plugged my left ear. I had to put mineral oil in both ears and cotton balls taped to ears for three nights before getting them cleaned.:laughing7:
 

Sweet finds but im confused, how do socks help?

I think it lets some air pass through the socks and keeps the ear dry. Try it out. Now that it's warmer like today I did get some sweating so I think I will need two socks.:laughing7:
 

Now there's an invention we could pitch to the Shark Tank....knitted booties for headphones!:tongue3: Nice finds! I want a war nickel! I got a '48 yesterday.....closest I have come:BangHead: thanks for sharing.

Look at it like this: you may be undoing damage done to the hobby by the tv shows. People that think " I can get get rich finding $100 Minie balls" may say " but not if I have to wear socks on my ears. I am taking up Pinochle instead!".
 

I think that's the first crotal bell I've ever seen posted that still has the retainer with it
 

Congrats on all the silver and that cool crotal bell RD. :thumbsup:
I've never heard of that sock idea, but it sounds like a winner. I sweat a lot and use a sweatband to keep sweat off my face, but the ears still get wet. I tried a pair of used underwear over my head once because they were already partially soil brown, but quickly got booted off the tot lot. :dontknow:
Great post.

BTW- I don't feel a bit sad for Old Dude never finding a war nickel, because he's been digging LC's a 2-cent coins. :tongue3:

I got to say I had thought about slipping a pair of brown gloves on the headset. But that would be to funny in public.
