Overall, I’m pretty happy with my 2020 season. I only scored 39 silver, but I lost a lot of hunting time because I chose to go back to college for my Bachelors degree. I also put in a lot of extra hours helping my city with their COVID-19 response. I was hoping to find silver #40 today, but things didn’t exactly go my way. Still, I did manage to find these;

The gold colored doodad was found in a pine forest and still has sap on it. I’m going to bring it to my local coin shop to be tested, it’s a really neat piece, and even has my initial on it! If it’s real gold, that would be even better.

39 silver coins, 1 gold ring, 30 or so large coppers, dozens of Indians, 100’s of wheats, and 1 Bachelors degree; I’ll take it!

Next year I’m going to keep better track of my large coppers, Indians, and wheat pennies, I used my photo library on my phone to guesstimate the amount of large coppers that I found this year.

2020 was a weird one, that’s for sure! I hope that everyone on here is doing OK, take care, and Happy New Year!

Nice way to ring out the year 2020!
That doodad looks like a sealing wax stamp...very cool!
Happy New Year!
 

Ya, a silver would of been nicer than that a old LC -with a bloody hole in it. :laughing7:

The fob seal-ya just another everyday piece of of history that hardly anyone ever digs.:occasion14:

Personally I'll just say that hunt would do me right nicely-congrats.

BTW-Tip the hat for your going back for the Bach.degree and helping out.:icon_thumright::icon_thumleft:
 

Pretty nice finds if you ask me! Thanks for sharing with us. Happy New Year to all!
