Well was mostly a bust. This mining old mining town I was out gets hit hard so didn't expect much. Can't really tell there was ever a mining town where I was but it was spread all over a large area and even had a old gold coinage mint in it. But I was finding a lot of mid tone signals that were trash but if those are there it tells me there is a good chance stuff is missed and there is so much area to cover. Found a nice horse shoe that looks kind of odd to me, some weird shaped flat piece of iron, a old button, a rock that is super heavy that my metal detector picked up on the mid tone so I don't think it's iron and doesn't seem like lead so I'm stumped. I think I'll get back out didn't to this spot so much area to explore and my coil didn't charge right and died in a couple hours darned deus hf coil always gives me charge issues.(edit, the "rock" is just a chunk if iron metal detector was just reading it as mid tone I guess because it was close to the surface.)

You go, display, and return with a photo album of glass.
Well, I can’t fill it yet. It is wobbly on the carpet. The Mr has to figure out what he wants to do to stabilize it. He will also have to rehang the pictures.

He probably will come home from work Monday with some.
Well you can get a carpet 🔪 🗡 and and cut that carpet away so the case can sit flat on the floor.
Sort of a redneck solution. 🤣

Nice finds, JVA5th. I’m curious to know what the flat iron piece is. I hate those rocks that set the detector off.

I'm curious about that one too. Thought it was a old boot plate but I doubt that is it. I'm kind of curious about the rock though. I'm not sure if it's a piece of broken iron or some sort of natural stone with a lot of solid iron in it. Doesn't look like it would be something broke off of a man made object. It's definitely iron though because I stuck a magnet to it.
 

Tonight on the menu some home made macaroni and cheese using some stewed tomatoes from the garden. We're tapped out of lettuce so I'll section a couple of oranges, take some marinated artichokes, marinated eggplant and some pitted black olives and make a salad out of them for a change of pace. Should be tasty.
:/
