Wheat, Silver and 50 cents

[Squirrel322]

The weather got cold enough to (mostly) freeze the ground again... After doing some detecting a couple weeks ago during a warm spot, I have been itching to get out again. The wife and I took the boy and the dog to a local (old school) playground for a quick dose of fresh air. While we were there, I had a chance to dig (I mean, hack through the frozen ground) 4 targets. The first one was a wheatie, the second one was trash and the last two were quarters plucked from the wood chips on our way out. When I got home I discovered the trash was actually sterling-silver-trash that was once a belt buckle. Hey, I'll take it

That's pretty cool man, I mainly just pan and sluice for gold but Looking through all the pics in todays finds is making me really consider getting a decent metal detector.
