ive been aiming to hit the park where there is 11 ball fields at but every time i get over that way its FULL of people but i got out early today and was plucking quarters outta the ground left and right. i got a good quarter signal and when to dig and found 4 quarters 2 dimes and 4 pennies in the hole :) only got to hunt 3 hrs today but in those 3 hrs i dug ALOT of stuff i can officially say i know what my MD is saying when it talks to me.
the chucky cheese token i found almost gave me a heart attack it was ringing up 50cent piece and it was really dirty when i found it and thought it was a old large coin but it was a stinking old token. still cool to find though
i was digging up a quarter when i felt a tap on the shoulder and it startled me i looked up it was a lil old lady about maybe 70ish she asked if she could borrow me for a few minutes. i asked what she had lost and she told me she lost her wedding ring she has had for 50 yrs. lost it somewhere between her car and the chair we was setting in, i was glad to put my detecting skills to the test, i found it about 3 minutes after looking and i wish i would have gotten a pic of it for yall to see. it was by far one of the more beautiful rings ive ever seen, she said its valued at close to 20k. she offered me a 20$ reward but i refused told her i cant except the money i do this as a passion of mine and was happy to see if my MD would find a nice ring and what it would show up as.

dang dude, that clad adds up. don't those old ladies make u smile?
 

Great job all the way around... Congrats :icon_thumright:
 

Congrats ..Nice job..And that was nice of you to find it for her and not except the money..A true die hard hunter... :thumbsup:
 

i just didnt have the heart to take any money she offered. the look on her face and smile was more then enough of a payment for me. and a parks and rec. guy was talking to me and i told him the story of her ring and he told me im welcome to hunt there anytime i want that he will spread the word to the other P/R guys to leave me alone. plus he was impressed with the ability to put the plug back and make it look as if it was never dug.
 

Awesome hunt, and nice ring find.:icon_thumleft:
 

Nicely done!!! Where was that park with the baseball fields? I grew up in Lexington and was just curious.
 

I've had the same near heart failure pulling out a chuckecheese token. Looks like you have something when it's in a hole and dirty.
 

I would never except money from anyone, unless of course I knew they were filthy rich for finding something like that. Nice job of being nice!
 

Makes up for 5 bad stories about us. Thank you
 

its falling springs ball fields in Versailles. its about 10 acres of ball fields and a few tot lots. its my new favorite place to hunt.
 

Great job finding that lady's ring.
 

Love the story!! You truly made her day, awesome!!
