Now if every hunt could be like this :headbang:. Got out this morning with Ryan ( eagleforce ) and hunted a couple of schools we had not hunted in the past few years . Right off the bat Ryan found greatness :thumbsup: , but I'll let him tell his story . As for myself silver came first . I had a nice deep 7-8 inch +82 , out popped a 1943 S Merc :thumbsup: . Not far after that I got a 1957 wheat at 8 inches . Next good target was a +83 at 6 inches , silver ring :icon_thumright: .
Then the soccer teams moved in so we moved on . We hunted up the street at a school / park that had given up some silver in the past . Not more than 15 minutes I had a screamer at one inch , +90 . I could believe what was in the dirt , three large coins and one was silver :hello2: . It was a coin spill with a 1991 Kennedy half and a large 10 Peso coin with a 1942 silver Walking Liberty half in the middle ! A silver sandwich :laughing7: . This the first walker for me in at least 3 years ! Some poor kid lost his collection is what I'm thinking . Next I found a bracelet with what I thought were all silver charms , but only one was silver the others were plated . Last but not least was a +50 at 3 inches , BIG GOLD RING :hello2: ! Well it's not really big but it does weigh 6.55 grams of 14K :headbang: . This brings my ring total for the year to #18 . Total clad found over about 3 hours was $8.85 .

Wow, Awesome hunt!!

If bet if every hunt was half that good you'd still be flying high. Lol
 

Ring-a-ling bling, big silver, your still ring king! WTG!!! That was an awesome day!!!!

That gold ring is real chunky! A reading of 50 on the meter, nice!
Just wait till after the spring breakers head your way, you'll be passing last years count!

I really like the coin spill with large silver, a real surprise, something you don't expect to find!
 

Wow, just wow Glen. These days are still good! Not to often we both strike gold! :occasion14: Congrats on all the great finds!

We had one great hunt !!! See you this weekend
