This is the first time since I started this addiction,that I scored both Gold and Silver in the same hunt.

Yours truly, the Wife and Hunt buddy Rob got together and hunted a fairgrounds (another first).

My wife found a good strong signal, called me over to run my machine over, it came up a VDI +6, Given that the last Gold found was a +8, I had no choice but to dig it. I dug it expecting junk. Imagine our surprise. 14k 2.4 Grams. Not big, but Woo Woo.

A bit after that, I moved across the roadway and worked along the fence. Got a good VDI +18, okay could be a nickle.it was, a WAR Nickle.

Exciting. My neighbors moved out two weeks ago. So Rob and I hit it.

I scored this vintage Ford Hubcap and a 1958 Wheatie.

Okay, so wait a minute. The wife finds the target and you dig it up and get the credit for it? I sure hope she's not a member on here.....LOL

Excellent finds!

Sweat equity. She doesn't dig dirt. If she had found it in the wood chips, 100% hers. :-)
I could have easily told her is was foil or a pull tab, in which case, someone else would have dug it later.

I think it's fair that I claim it as my find with her assist. YOu?
 

Congrats on you double score- silver & gold! Really nice looking ring!

I'm still looking for the gold one with a diamond "in" it! One of these days!
 

Nice finds. Congrats.
