Last week Nate and I got the itch to do some detecting. Since it was 88 we didn’t want to make a big trip out of it. We decided to detect an old 1800’s home site that has been used as a park for the last 80 years. This site is super trashy(a nice carpet of pull tabs) but some decent finds have come from it. I put on the 7.5 inch DD Coil on my new Explorer II. Since I am just learning the machine I got a couple pull tab signals and dug them. Ok, that’s what a pull tab reads as. 15 minutes later one of the pull tabs sounded a little better than a tab. Dug it and found the silver ring. 
Looks like it could have some age. Outside appears fairly worn. Inside writing says To Mickey Teay(?). Only found one other coin in our hour of detecting. Nate also only found one coin.
Had some luck with a few other rings at a local elementary school. All three were in the same small area. The silver butterfly ring sounded better than a pull tab but the others like one. The one says 18 k on the inside. Of coarse it was plated and most of the plating came off. :P
Last hunt was with a fellow DFX owner who made the drive up to hunt our latest hotspot. Nate scored some nice keepers and Don found a cool “Good for 5 cents trade” token as well as a hotel key ring.
