I hit a new spot this afternoon for about 3 hours, scored 3 silver rings and a AA token. Doesn't appear to have been hit by anyone else. It's a trash dump and I only dug from 15 and up on the Nox. I think there's some gold hiding at this place. I was hunting in the area from the old shoreline down to the water. The lake level is way down and the targets are rather shallow and easy to recover. I'm going back Sunday and dig from 0 and up, I'll grid an area and begin cleaning it out.

Good dig. I hunted an 'Ol swimming hole, and even though it flooded almost every year, and the area was layered with a lot of sand, I found V-nickles, silver dimes, quarters, rings ...etc
 

Congratulations on the token and rings! Nice finds! The coins look pretty toasted... will they clean up or are they too far gone? Thanks for posting.

The zincs are wasted, the others will clean up just fine.
 

Nice haul. I'd be pulling those lead sinkers out of the trash pile. BTW, What is that arrowhead looking thing between the keys and vape pens?

I think it's a fishing weight, there's a hole thru the center. I thought it was a large pendant at first lol.
 

Now that's a target rich location! :icon_thumright:
 

I have a ring like the middle one on your finger. Seriously. I was going to take a pic and show you, but I can’t find it. The bottom pic looks like what I find. That was a lot of digging! Congratulations on your keepers! You hunted hard for them.
 

Man you did some digging, but nice saves!!! "D"
