Since Canada has invaded PA Again

[jeff of pa]

with 30 MPH Gusts of Biting Wind, I
wasn't in the Mood to get out there Hunting today
but wanted to test out my new 6" DD EXcelerator Coil.

So I Decided my Own Yard would do.

Lawnmower Gas rebate
35 Cents.


I Sort of Cheated though.
The Quarter I Buried Years ago at about 7"
for testing. Because I Wasn't 100% Sure
I had the Correct spot.
took me awhile & Several Tries
before I Got a Coin reading, so I Dug it.

Another find a Tiny Piece of Aluminum


While going after a Piece of trash
I took a Scoop & Saw this Marble layng There.



Went to the side of my House & found this Ring



& Only Other Keeper
1942 Wheat



Although it is Obvious the 6" Coil
has Great depth & It's Place in my Arsenal,
It's going to take some Getting used to.

Old looking ring, and cool that you didn't have to leave home to make a few finds.

so the old homestead isn't hunted out..

apparently not Jim.
I Only wish half my yard wasn't swamp yet.
the best spots are still under water
& Anything in there is now sinking in fast.

Plus me driving through the Mud to get in & Out
is pushing everything fruther into oblivian.
add to that the countless Bricks & Rocks
I throw in the foot deep Tire Tracks daily

Anyway, Thanks all for looking.

Those are some great finds right in your own yard. Love that ring! Speaking of Canadian air, we've been in the mid 40s in the morns. Weds high was 61, so that is rather cold for LA this time of the year.

Same here! Really like that ring, looks like a religious ring. Not too bad for that small coil to tag that quarter at that depth.

[jeff of pa]

Jeff that's pretty good depth with that small coil! Got any pictures of that ring cleaned up? It looks pretty cool!

Here ya go Rob

its a catholic "miraculous" medal (vision of st mary) ring *

its a catholic "miraculous" medal (vision of st mary) ring *

Since it's Catholic, I'm hoping it
may have Been from the Former
Our Lady of the Snows Church
out the road.
I Think it went out of Buisness in the 60's

 

[ivan salis]

highly posssible * it belonged to a member of the church especially if it was close by. -- in paris in 1830 a nun saw a "vision" of mother mary * who told her the design of the medal to be made , which the nun passed on to her superiors -- many folks wearing those religious medals had many blessings and amazing events occur in their lives --thus they became know as "miracle" or mirculous medals .

the 1830 if marked upon it --refers to the "event" date -- it does not mean the item was made in 1830 * since they did not start making them until 2 years later -- the nuns superiors watched her for a couple of years to see if she was pulling some sort of trickery or not -- finding out she was not to the best of their ability * and taking her at her word that what she said was indeed true --they started making and releasing the medals to fellow catholics .
