My wife gave me a 'hall pass' to go out and detect all day today! :thumbsup: I don't know what I did to make her so happy . . . though I did have a couple of glasses of wine last night! :laughing7:

Headed back to my favourite park for 5.5hrs of hunting today. I decided to redo an area I had already covered last fall with my Ace 350, all I found then were modern coins. This time I have the At Pro and my detecting style has improved considerably since last year. The first item of interest that I found was the fancy key ring; it appears to be made of copper and bronze. It's marked 'Made in Italy' at the very top and there's some printing on the back that I can't quite make out. :icon_scratch: As usual, I'm digging tons of pennies; a lot of them are older ones from the mid-1940's onwards. Of course, when you're digging lots of coppers, silver eventually shows itself and today I found three more Silver Dimes from '44, '53 & '64. I few hours later I was digging yet another copper when out popped this Sterling Silver Ring, this is my first silver ring of 2012 and it weighs 7.8g! ;D Total cash found today was a tad over $5.00.

The last picture I've posted here is of the eight silver dimes I've found here in the past three weeks!

Thanks for looking and Happy Hunting!
Dave

Awesome!
Ever notice that, no matter where you hunt, there always seems to be a toy car pop-up sooner or later? Haha!! I found one yesterday.

I thought this was funny too, but mainly because the car I found is a yellow Chevy Camero and they're built by GM here in Oshawa, Ontario where I live! :laughing7:
Thanks for your post Digs68 and welcome to Tnet! :hello:

Now that is one great hunt Dave ! That ring is a chunker :headbang: . As for the hall pass , I have learned that when it is given out it means she will ask for something later :laughing7: . The honey do list :laughing7: .
Great stuff Dave , congrats on all that silver !

Don't I know it! Usually when she's nice to me it's because she wants me to do something nice in return and that's what really hurts! :laughing7: Thanks Glen, take care bud!
Dave

that's a big pile of coins !!
Congrats on a great Silver Finds Day :hello2:

Thanks very much Herbie!
 

You had a great silver day for sure :thumbsup: living in Michigan I run across Canadian coins quite often, recently I found a 1919 quarter but it's so worn you have to hold it at an angle in the right light just to read the date.
 

Wow nice hunt!

Wish I could get out, but we are getting some much needed rain.
Congrats! Love the silvers and the ring!
 

Really cool to find three silvers in one day! I wish every day could be like that! Just curious, how deep were the silver dimes? How strong and consistant was the I.D. signal on you Garrett?
