All Treasure Hunting
Last week while we were out camping in northern Nevada, My two boy's and I decided to go metal detecting around some old hunting camps, I didn't expect to find much of anything out in the area but decided to give it a try. I found a few clad coins, one 1956 wheat penny, and a bunch of bullets. At one of the sites that I detected I found a nice gold toned ST. Christopher Medal. The best find that I came across was along one of the roads that I had seen an old dump site. I decided to try my luck around the dump, I didn't find anything at the dump, but I detected my way back to the road and I found an amazing little 14k gold pendant with 22 small Diamonds and an 1851 Liberty Head gold dollar in it.

That's just gaaw-just! Congratulations on the find and for making the BANNER! :) Breezie
 

That is amazing!!! How awesome is that?
 

Wow!....What a rewarding day that was for you all. It goes to show you that there is lost treasures everywhere you can imagen but, you got to get out there and get involved inorder to find it. Just about every time I get focused prior to my hunt I tell myself "IT'S THERE WAITING FOR YOU TO LOCATE IT"... After that I just get out there (whereever) and bring a piece or two back in as my reward...prity much every time.
 

Wow!...can't believe you found these "close" to the old dump (not even in it...but you continued to hunt walking away...)...off a side road...luck was with you for sure!...Congrats!
 

unbelievable. you never know who's been where with what, but we know gravity always works!
