A good day with Indian Steve

[DeepseekerADS]

This is the first time I've ever posted my finds, a couple times I talked about them, but Steve and I went out today and put in 3 hard hours of hunting.

I took the Excal II to test it out, nobody told me just how heavy it was on land! Straight rod coming. So I used my CTX.

I know Steve bettered my number count, but I found the silver - a nice sterling ring I'm fond of:



Also got an ear pendent which may be silver, unmarked and haven't tested it yet.



And then the number count.



All clad and zincolns:

5 quarters
10 dimes
3 nickels
25 cents (sure got tired of digging these in that very tough grass)

For a total of $2.65

Also found 3 tent pegs.

And all the tabs & bottle tops went into my trash at home.

I got 16 quarters, 12 dimes, 5 nickels and 57 pennies and wore my butt out.

And I thought I was tired!

Congrats on the silver ring Deepseeker. Part of today's treasure was hunting with a good friend.

 

[Indian Steve]

I dug at least that many trash targets.

 

[DeepseekerADS]

I cleaned the ring and took a better picture. It weighs 2.11 gr.

Thanks for posting your finds.

Nice silver finds! Congrats!
Most of my dug.... uh hmm, treasure, is zincs! : )

Yeah, the zincs!!! And that tough grass - about the darned hardest to dig in I've ever encountered. Had to use that saw blade on the Leche to cut through them, several times for each flap. I only dug 25 zincs, but Steve dug 57 of the darned things. It got to the point that I started looking at VDI choosing whether to dig the signal or not. Got blisters today!

That ring looks like it's straight out of Mardi Gras! Congratz!

Earring looks like a puzzle piece...

I took it as a simple puzzle piece, but then omegared31 Said it was a symbol for autism. I didn't know that, and perhaps the previous owner didn't know it either. I just tested it with the Puritest kit and it came up green indicating it is silver plated.

Yesterday my brother and I learned how to use a Puritest Solutions test kit. The ear pendant puzzle piece is silver after all, tiny as it is, it's silver

We also learned about using the 18k gold solution to check silver as well - it works, saw that on Youtube.
