Hi all, Gary and I got out a Tuesday of this week. We started off going to an old School house site, then went to a old Church site and ended our day at the Happy Trails site.

Gary started off finding a few good coins at the School house site and the church site. He found 2 IH's 1883 & 1895 and 2 wheat pennies 1919 & 1925. He also found a Barber dime 1910 all from these sites.

I found just a 1891 Seated Quarter and 2 wheat pennies 1916 & 1916 D.

We then went to the Happy Trails site and started popping the silver out. Gary found a really nice SLQ 1926, 3 War Nickels '42 P, '45 S,
'45 S, a Buffalo nickel 1936, a Mercury Dime '38 & 2 Roosevelt Dimes '59 & '62. He also found 3 wheat pennies '41, '44, ' & '50 D. He also found a Gold and Silver Charm, a Gold Cross and a Silver Indian Head Ring. His old Garrett ACE 250 was smokin!

I found a Mercury Dime 1941 and 2 Roosevelt Dimes 1946 & 1956. One Buffalo Nickel 1936 and 4 wheat pennies '37, '44, '54, & '55. I also dug a Black Onyx ring up.

All in all, we had a pretty good day. I am still a little handicapped as I fractured my left wrist.

Hope you all had a great week before the bad weather set in.

HH all, Ringfinder

Congratulations.

We always have a good time when we hunt together which is most of the time. It's always fun when you find old items.

Man, what a haul. I think I would hit those sites every chance I got. Keep up the good work. HH Sonny

Sony, we hit these same places a lot, especially the field sites. Everytime the farmer works the field, we are out hunting. Right now, since we had a really hard freeze this winter, the coins are moving all over the place. It's a good time to hit some of our old sites. It is also very wet, and you know what they say, The Wetter The Better. Believe me, it's true.

HH all and remember, keep the coil to the soil. Ringfinder
 

WOW nice! hey i found an indian ring just like that years ago. any story behind it? ive always wondered about that ring.
 

Great narrative and great pics. Once again proving the worth of that little ACE 250. I have posted several times that I picked up coins that those thousand dollar units have missed but no one believes me. ::) Excellent hunt. Monty
 

WOWZA What a day! Sweet digs. I would be in heaven if I had a day of finds like that. Need to train my 250 I guess ;D

Happy hunting

Yes we finally got the thaw, but now it keeps raining everyday. I thought the old saying was April showers bring May flowers, not March rains. LOL

Hope you start finding great things up your way soon, Shadow.

I don't really know anything about the ring, my partner found it. Guess we will have to do some research on the ring.
