Lots of SUN, SILVER & some GOLD today.
Had a great day today. The sun was out & I had a little time to get out. Hit the river swim beach again. Found some clad, a fish weight & a nice .925 mens silver ring. Wind came up so I headed to the old middle school & ran across the new owner of the property. I've known him for a long time & he consented to my hunting my little heart out just anytime I want. Just asked if I would mark any sprinkler heads I found for him. Of course I said FINE WITH ME!
Got started & hit a silver 56 Rosie first thing. This school was built in the late thirties & I know there is silver there. Just have to slow down & search out DEEP targets. I'm always in a hurry & that is one reason I don't hit too many rings,,, until today. Found some clad ( $1.81 ) then a small .925 silver filigree womens silver ring, moved three feet & hit a 10K gold womens heart shape ring, stone missing. Then I got into the silver charm business in the play ground equipment area. Found a total of 4 silver charms, none of which appear to have ever been related to each other. Then it just gets better.
Had to walk across the old football field to get back to the truck. Hit a strange signal. Very solid at 8 inches but couldn't make up my mind just what it might be, so I dug it. Had a heck of a time finding it after I dug it up. Kept getting a signal but couldn't see anything special so I resorted to the pin pointer. It was hot to trot for what I thought was a slightly misshaped round fish weight about the size of two pencil erasers. I out it in my pouch & headed home. I was out for 4 hours total between both places.
Got home & examined the finds & low & behold, I think I found a small stony meteorite. It is very heavy for it's size, but only slightly magnetic. It is smooth & rounded like a split shot with a flat side & under a Glass, it has small pock marks & appears to have been very hot, but it is not dark colored. Anyway, it is most interesting. I don't think it is worth sending off for testing but I like it anyway. It was just the perfect end to a nice day for me. Spotz
