Met up with 5 friends to dig at an old site. At mid day we
broke bread together then went back for a couple more hours of digging. Had a great time. Dug 28 clad coins, and 53 trash targets. My first keeper was a medical ID bracelet next was an 1866 Indian head penny, followed by a Buffalo nickel. Not long after that I got that good nickel signal again. When I pulled back the dirt I seen that oh so familiar gold circle in the dirt! WOOO HOOO!!!! GOLD!!!
A nice 14K ring with the letters "NB" cut into it. Near the end of the hunt I got the ear ring and the old toy scooter. Had a great time with friends on a wonderful sunny day! Thank you Lord!

That NB looks like the symbol of New Balance. Maybe a former worker or retiree? I may be wrong but just a thought.
 

Great finds Mike. I like the Good Friday reference of breaking bread with your friends at noon. Sweet finds and am happy for you-an 1866 IHP that's only a year after Lincoln was assasinated by JWB-an oldie for sure. Always a great day when you find gold. Hope that all had a wonderful time and were at least half as successful as you.:icon_thumright:
 

Nice digs, Mike. :hello2: Congrats on the Buff and IH, sweet gold ring too. Love the scooter. :icon_thumleft:

Did anyone else find anything of note?

Happy Easter!
