Me and my hunting buddies rarely hunt parks but today we were tutoring a new detectorist. We went to an out of the way area of a very old nearby park. I ended up getting a signal and when I dug down I hit a large flat rock. I checked the hole and the signal was still there. I pulled the rock out and underneath was a newish Craftsman work glove. It was all wet and muddy from recent rains...yuk...so I flicked it out of the hole and re-checked it. Now I have no signal so I check the glove and the detector goes off. I was pretty sure these work gloves didn't have metal buckles so I get out the Garrett Pro-Pointer. I give the glove a once over and it's the index finger giving me the signal. For a brief moment I got excited thinking maybe someone pulled the glove off and the ring they were wearing stayed inside...but then I thought what if the finger is in there with it? I reluctantly squeeze the index finger and, luckily, don't feel a bone but do feel something round. Now I'm excited again so I turn it up and shake it out. A modern quarter falls out! What? Who puts a modern quarter in the index finger of a glove, places it in a hole, caps it with a flat rock and buries it? ... I can think of a few guys that might have thought this would be funny....I'm guessing some wise guy detectorist realized he had lost a glove and thought to himself "hmmm what to do with this, now useless, left hand work glove?"
haha...who knows? The things we dig up!
